How far should I drop my lude? - Honda Prelude Forum

MR.CLIFFORD · 10-25-2002, 08:31 PM

First off about my car. I just bought GC coilovers with KYB AGX. I already have an ingalls camber kit(the one that allows for lots of drop) Wheels are 17 x 7 Tenzo Shu 4's with 205/40/17's. My car is daily driven and I have been scouting every place I should stay away from.

I want to know how much I should drop my car.

here is a sexy drop(photo provided at the cost of Mark94)

A little More aggressive.

Or should I just drop it to the ground?

(I would love to do this but I don't want bags)

I am leaning towards the second height. I need to know if I will have rub problems at this height and if so what I will have to do to fix the rub.

Please help me out and tell me your opinions. Thanks!

Marks drop. I have always loved Marks car. I can't wait till mine runs again! I think he has the best drop out of the three. That yellow one is nasty.

my sportlines are too aggresive for me

slo mo · 10-26-2002, 01:16 PM

i had sportlines but took them out to get Teins. Now I'm way lower and love it.

I can't believe you guys don't like my stock wheel gap.

I had those same rubber guards on my wheel wells, but i finally removed them.

MARKS drop is perfect! Thats what I want.

eu4ik · 10-27-2002, 03:37 AM

mine are comin off. i was hit in february, and the truck dented the mother loving hell outta the fender. so i just bought another one and painted it

no rubber guard-so ill be removing the ones on the rest of the fender wells asap. i just got the fender on a week ago

And the mud gaurds!!

eu4ik · 10-27-2002, 11:06 AM

we will see. im getting new paint in early '03 and i drive a LOT of gravel roads. i dont want my paint screwed up extra bad cause i didnt have those on there.

btw when i dropped my car, i cut the mud guards a little. they hung way too close to the ground.

Padge · 10-27-2002, 11:11 AM

yea i took those off too

red92si · 10-27-2002, 12:40 PM

I have mine dropped 1.5" on Ground Control's. Takes away the nasty wheel gap, and improves my handling very noticeably.
