I was thinking about shopping through jdm_in_stock via ebay.. they're authorized for Skunk2, and they claim to be authorized through Tein.. of course, I'd ask Tein if they were authorized before buying.Originally posted by CB7_ACCORD
Are Skunk2 springs of good quality? I've heard of Skunk2, but haven't used them on anything.

I hadn't checked MSRP or local prices, but the guy on ebay has them for $159 or so, where he sells the Tein S.Techs for $165.Originally posted by CB7_ACCORD
The Skunk2's are 1.8R 2.0F, so I'm going to measure my current ride height and see if the smaller drop would be better, or not enough.

MINE HAS 1.9 INCH DROP ON STOCK SIZE TIRES SOMETIMES WHEN I TURN HARD IT RUBS A LITTLE. MY SPRINGS ARE JUST SOME CHEAP S-TECH KNOCKOFFS THAT I PAID LIKE $90 FOR ON EBAY I DIDNT HAVE THE DOUGH FOR ANYTHING BETTER AND MY SHOCKS ARE KYB THAT LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN RECENTLY REPLACED. those rims you got would look nice on my 240.

I'm starting to worry that if I lower my cb7, I'll have exhaust-scrape issues..
I'm assuming the ride you have lowered 1.9" is the one in your sig? That looks lower than 1.9"
Your offset is probably correct for your car, too.. mine sit out just a bit, but probably not enough to become an issue.. at worst, I could probably sell these rims and buy new ones to fit the rubber I already have, so they'd sit further in.. but it'd be nice to keep them as-is for now.
I think I'm going to go with the Skunk2 springs now, they're slightly cheaper and I keep reading good things about them.

My exhaust scrapes on steep inclines, but only really steep inclines.. I can't imagine after the car gets dropped.Originally posted by bigredtopsr
I'll probably swap out the resonator (muffler) for a barrel that sites behind the bumper and has a flared tip, or chop and glass a larger hole on the bumper so I can raise it up a bit for the soon-to-be drop

got a 3.5" drop on mine. the mid section of the exhaust is what mostly scrapes on. ( that and the flex pipe) just have to angle everything and go slow on bad roads. either than that don't really have any complaints.
i am planning on raising it up around half inch just so the upper a arms stop hitting the inside of my fenders....

mak, how do you drive when you go on inclines? hopefully not dead on and at an angle. if you dont, start as soon as your car gets dropped. you will be fine with a 2" drop on your stock struts as far as them going out. the car stills kind of high from the factory in my opinion but then again check out my sig.
how far out do your wheels stick out past the fender looking from a top view? i ask that because your wheels will naturally camber in slightly the lower it goes
