Megan suspension/Prothane bushing!! O_O
Now that I have my new wheels and tires on, it's time to beef up the suspension.

Not so much as to lowering, but I needed new shocks and thought about springs. So, just went with these. And they can ran at stock height.

The two fingers test was done on the front wheel and fender. factory I was able to fit four fingers so I took it down about 1.5inch. And of course can be adjusted back to factory specs.

Installed. Bushing were a no go. Stock RDX trailing arm bushing are 3.5inch, most honda's are standard 3inch.

No no, the bushing was just for testing; which it did not fit. So, for our rear trailing arm bushing it is back to the drawing board.
