RDX Lowering Springs

hello all,

still tryna figure this page out, idk how to reply yet (im on mobile version of webpage), so sorry for just “thumbs up” ing your replies and whatnot

anyways, ive been searching high and low for some lowering springs that i can order for my ‘11 RDX, and i cant find anything for the life of me. i dont want a crazy amount of drop but i want something subtle and good looking on some 19’s.. any suggestions or ways to go about this?

Eibach is the only company that made lowering springs for the car. And it was only for a few years. The only way to get your hands on a set of them is to buy them used, which is not often. I may have seen 1 or 2 sets for sale since I got my RDX 2 years ago. And they sold almost immediately.

Coilovers are the only real way to lower the car. There are a number of options, but Megan and BC are the two most noteworthy brands that offer them. Coilovers are definitely a bit more expensive, but honestly its not much more than you'll pay for a set of used springs and new quality shocks. You don't want to pair your high mileage factory shocks with lowering springs. Chances are they will blow pretty quick. No one makes high end performance shocks for the car, but a new set of KYB Excel-Gs would be good. But pay a few hundred more for all new coilovers, and you get stiffness adjustability, along with the ability to adjust your ride height to your exact liking.

Hope this helps.

I have the KYB excel-G struts in the front & rear. They are much stiffer than stock.

Whenever I need to redo the front I'll probably go with the BC coilovers, but I'm quite happy with the excel-Gs right now.
