my christmas present

[life_shift]

So this Christmas i got new struts and springs.

Tokico blues and Tein springs.

I have a few questions,

What it the lowest drop i should be expecting out of this combo?

Money isn't the issue for a proper camber kit either, i would rather be safe than dead but what would you recommend? I have heard good and bad about Ingalls so I'm iffy as to what is should buy. I need camber for the rear and front. I have heard that the upper control arms with adjustable camber are a better way to go, but I cannot find a set.

It isn't going to be much of a drop, but it depends if they're the H-tech or S-tech springs. Also, the Skunk2 EF civic upper control arms work well. I wouldn't get a rear camber kit until everything's installed...you probably won't need one.

even if you do need some rear correction, you can just use the washer method and save yourself the cash

stay away from the EF camber kit. nice pick up btw

Why's that? Ronald used it with success.

with my drop (F/F1 coilovers) i was at -4.5 on the left and -3.6 on the right for camber. That was the ball joint all the way out. Maybe i was too low but i wouldnt suggest them at all. thats my opinion.

1/8" Washers in the back (with longer bolts if more than 2 washers) and SPC adjustable ball joints in front is all you need.

In your case I see your point, but for the OP's setup, he's looking at roughly a 1.8" drop at most, so that kit should easily have enough adjustment while keeping the arms from hitting.

Ronald ran about 3 degrees of camber on purpose I think anyways. Zeroing the camber isn't good at all for handling, and the amount of tire wear is negligible compared to what toe misalignment can do.

very very true but also length wise the EF arm is shorter even when the ball joint is all the way out. with his drop the SPC ball joint camber kit will be fine

nice score life shift. i would install them and see what you got . then go from there . it sounds like a good and safe set up .

Yeah that's also true.
