is it worth dropping?
I know it looks good when the car is lowered, but is it worth it? I live here in Florida, Ft lauderdale. and I have past experience w/ low honda civic. it always hit the under part whenever I hit a huge bump or when I have a heavy baggage on the trunk...
But is it really worth the drop? or its just for looks....

It depends. I've had cars that were slammed but that got annoying.
The TSX needs the a-spec suspension kit at the very least.

imo, a drop is needed for looks and it does also have it's handling benefits. if you're worried about a big drop, then just go with a spring/shock combo and call it a day. if you go with tein h tech, h & r, or a spec springs you won't even need to switch out your struts

if you're worried about bad roads and scratching the underpart i'd say at Least go for the aspec suspension. it'LL definateLy make the car Look better and handLe better than the oem spec.

Coilovers.
I drove around MI roads for 2 years with Buddy Club N+ set around 2-2.25" drop all around. Never had a problem bottoming out or rubbing with passengers/luggage.

moving forward, any future car i own must have no wheel to fender gap.
currently running on h&r coilovers on the tsx. no issues with bottoming out / rubbing. i've gone over some steep speed bumps too.
