2002 Civic

[imported_ryancg121]

I have a 2002 Civic LX with 215/45/17 tires on it and I want better handling without giving up too much of my ride quality. I currently have a Neuspeed Front Strut Bar and Neuspeed Poly Sway bushings on the front sway bar. What other upgrades can I do? If I wanted to lower it, what would be the best choice? Would using Eibach's Pro Series, with less than an inch drop help me at all? Also what struts should I use and do I need a camber kit?

I have Ground-Control coilover sleeves and KYB GR-2 struts and I enjoy the ride and taking corners and all of that stuff. I'm no expert at recognizing great handling but for me it does the trick.

I'm sure if you pair up the Ground-Control coilover sleeves with KYB AGX struts you will have better handling. Also I wouldn't doubt any Eibach springs because I always hear incredible things from users.

My ride quality is so very close to stock it is scarey. I rode on 215/40/16 and 205/50/15 on a '96 Civic with it lowered about 1.5"

A year after it was lowered I had to take my 16" wheels off the car and noticed signs of camber wear and on one tire it was pretty bald on the inside edge. I recently took it to get aligned (yeah, I didn't when I had it lowered ) and they fixed the toe, which was way out of line, and I was told it should help with 80% of my tire wear. So we'll see how that works with no camber kits or anything.

I use eibach sportsline and they are sweet. It's a very lower ride but really nice.

i have a skunk2 front control kit and drop zone CO's with a red's suspension setup rides great . I'm starting to notice just a touch of float but still not bad. Tight in turns and quick up after a bump

I have KYB AGX's in all 4 corners with Tanabe Super Precedo Down Lowering springs, with Hyperflex poly urethane bushings throughout the whole suspension. If I turn the shocks to full hard it is differently a stiff ride. Handles like the car rides on rails
