Suspension help

[finch13]

I bet you could tuck a 245 on a +40 wheel...

Probably need 1.5-2* neg. camber in the rear though. I've got like 3/4" to go more neg. with my 225's if I need to and that's at -1.3*. They only rub a little on the bumper.

you can also roll the fenders to guarantee safety should it rub as well as give you more clearance inside the wheel well

Am I just dumb?? Is there a vendor marketplace on here? I can't find one. If not is there a forum for hondas with one? Any vendors you would recommend for H&R springs and tokico blues? I havent taken the time to look through all the forums yet.


I drove the car a bit more today and don't see any problems with the tires yet, so I'm gonna do suspension and revisit the tires if needed.Thanks for all the help.

you can get tokico hp's off ebay for a decent price last time i checked. thats where i got my illuminas, back in the stone age.

ya I got my blue's off ebay for like 300 I think. there was a guy selling some used ones on here dunno if they ever sold though.

Soooo I need some help with this one. I found a set of ff type 1 coilovers, used for 2 months supposedly. The guy cant give me a model number but says the fix accord and tsx. Does that mean they will fit the 02 coupe v6? He wants 500 for them, but I think thats a little high considering I can get brand new ones for 625 or so. I know what most of you think of the type 1's but I think for the money and ease of install it makes more sense than unmatched dampers and springs plus about the same money. Remember I'm still a noob when it comes to hondas so any advice on this would be helpful. Thanks

if you think the price is high offer him less...but if they truly are that new than maybe that is why his price is the way it is...

coilovers are the way to go even for new guys....as you get more mods your style will change and having adjustable suspension will be a huge advantage...

The deal on the coilovers fell through, the guy didnt even know what he was selling so I walked away. Today I found a Honda tuning shop in Denver and figured I would let someone look at the tires and see what they thought. The guy said he would sell me anything I wanted but said I need to get the right size tire first. After looking at the tires on the rims he said there was no way they would tuck. So now I got money tied up in a set of rims that I cant use. Hmmm... through the stockers back on and do the suspension first while I look for the right deal?? I want to find a deal on some coilovers hopefully no more than 600. I'll buy slightly used so I guess that leaves me with ff type1's. Any others that would fall in that range used??
