looking into lowering my car

[Wparr17]

Ok well i have a 2001 integra ls and im looking to lower it about 1.25-2 inches and im wondering what combo of parts to use.. Im looking for cheap around 500 maybe 600 but anything cheaper would be amazing! Lowering springs with shocks? Full coilovers? Or coilover sleeves with shocks? Would are all the parts i need ro get if i get someting other than coilovers? Is a rear strut bar worth it also? Thanks

Tein s tech springs on tokico blues.

^this if you won't need to adjust. Otherwise function and form type 1's run about $550 and are adjustable coilovers.

How would you install springs and shocks? Do you just need basic tools or take it to a shop and let them do it.. A link or how to video would b nice thanks

Would the springs get rid of the wheel gap? And why not skunk2 or something just curious..

Installing isn't that bad, you just need to go to an Autozone and borrow a spring compressor. 2" drop will get rid of the wheel gap

In my opinion, anything lower than a 2-2.5" drop starts to look a little funky. I'm not a fan of an excessively low car.

Here is an example of a 2" drop...gets rid of the majority of wheel gap without any rubbing or effect on camber.

Yes, on s techs

And because Tein is a better quality brand

Agree with function form. I have function form type 1 coilovers on my car and i am very happy with them.
