I have a question too. What is too low, that it just looks ugly? I'm getting coilovers and I need to decide how slammed I want to go.

^^How do you drive? Are you planning on getting a lip kit?

What kind of coilovers do you have and what is it's stiffness rating or whatever you call it?

Is there any problems with accelerated wear on the C.V. Joints when you slam an Accord?

My slammed Camry beater would eat up axles in as little as 2 months! I also had problems with the axles bottoming out at the back of their "axle sockets(?)" and I think that this is what led to my tranny being cracked...or maybe it was from the times that I jumped it off-road :driving:

Vehicle Code section 24400.
Headlights between 22 and 54 inches.

Vehicle Code section 24603
Brake lights between 15 and 72 inches.

But i dont understand how all the raised trucks get away with it. I guess they technically have their headlights lights lower than 4 1/2 feet. Bleh it seems like more of a hazard blinding every car that goes by.

i drive like anyone else. i just pay attention to where im going and watch what im driving on/over. its not hard. its my 3rd car thats been decently low, so im used to it by now.

as for lip kits, no. i can honestly say there isnt one lip kit that i like for 6th gens. sorry if that offends anyone, thats just my opinion. the only lip id put on my car would be the type-r one, i might still, but idk if i wanna spend the money for something thats prolly gonna just get destroyed, haha.

im on ksport pro damper full coilovers. idk the stiffness rating on the springs on my coilovers, and i honestly dont care. when you lower a car, it shouldnt have ride characteristics of its original stock height. with a lowered suspension, it should always become a stiffer ride. BUT, the ksports do ride very well for how low my car is. i havent even changed the perch of the springs, my drop is all from the shock body height adjustment....which, by not changing the spring perch, leaves the piston for the shock absorber to travel its full length, which results in a good ride.

hahaha as much as i try not to break any laws and abide by rules, one rule that i think is extremely retarted is based on how low your car can be. who the **** cares how low someone's car is? they arent causing any sort of danger to anyone on the road. are there any laws regarding how high your vehicle can be? i see a lot of lifted trucks in so cal and 90% of them are all complete dipsh1ts that have no regards for others on the road.
