is it worth it?

you may want to re-think dropping your car 4 inches if you are breaking so much stuff.......you cant look very good on the side of the road with a busted oil pan.

just an idea

forgot to tell yell this....
brough my car into a shop,
they siad they cannot adjust my alignment
because i need a 5 degress camber kit.
which they don't make.
if they can do that, my tires will hit the side walls.

so right now, i'm changing my tires every 2 months
before i hit the meshi stuff in the tires.
or whenever i start sparking on the highway, or sharp turns..

here another picture.



yeah i also drive it in the winter

I think the rims are different because it was cheaper to buy honda accord rims with tires than just the tire so he just put those on. That looks pretty low but redwine2.2 claims a 3" drop and his looks lower. What did you lower with, coilovers?
