DropZone Coilovers
I’m a first GEN CL owner and I’m looking to lower the car over some 18” or 19”
Inch rims. I already purchase some KYB GR2 shocks—I was looking at these drop-zone coilovers (http://www.slickcar.com/accessories/..._over_kits.asp) I’m not sure how the ride will be, has anyone here used drop-zone before?

I’m not so sure the KYB GR2 was your best choice for a aggressive drop. The GR2 is nothing more than an OEM replacement. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but something along the lines of 2 inch drop and long term reliability might be jeopardized

I have 17in wheels on my accord. The ride is bouncy but if dumped is what you're looking for, coilovers are the way to go. Hope you don't want to get up any driveways or speed bumps.
When I first got them everyone told me that I would regret it because they're really bouncy but I didn't regret it. Fell in love with the way it looked as soon as it came off the lift. People in the back seat tell me that it's murder. Damn near catchin air on the parkway down to Atlantic City.
I have 40 series tires and they're a bit stiffer than stockies but I wouldn't say the ride was horrible. You'll just bottom out alot.

I recently got the dropzone lowering springs. My ride is not that bad at all considering I have BLOWN shocks all the way around! The big bumps sound like they hurt, but really don't, and its not a bumpy ride at all. I barely compromised my ride when I put them on.
I had a friend drive my car and he was impressed with the ride. He had no clue my shocks were blown.
