Opinions for a drop...
01 cl type s...want to lower my car..i want as close to stock ride as possible...what do i need to do to do it right...i am clueless as to what camber does for my car so guys please let me know...i am a newbie to aftermarket customization and pretty scared of ruining my car and ride...i live, work and commute on the horrendous streets of n.y.c. So please keep that in mind. I'm leaning toward tein h. Sports or s. Sports with tokico struts/kyb gr2 struts. Drop is 1.5/2.1 respectively. Do i need a camber kit if i run this setup? Any opinions, expert recomendations or advice is appreciated. By the way im on stock rims..looking possibley to grab some '08 accord 18x8 rims 55 offset. Would that pose a problem if i lowered? Thanks!!

I've been in your situation for a while just kind of hanging out and researching the options and the general consensus is that Tein Basics are "bouncy" like stock and the closest in similarity...based on my research.
Also, from the same research...you will need a camber kit.
The fitment of the rims...I can't help you there...this is still a confusing thing to me.

THE BASICS ARE COILOVERS THO...I DONT WANT OR CAN I AFFORD COILOVERS...I'M PROBABLY GOING WITH TEIN H.TECHS AND TOKICO BLUES...SEEMS TO BE THE BEST SETUP...SOFTEST...I'M CURIOUS HOW OTHER STRUTS WOULD PERFORM WITH THE TEIN H. TECHS...KYB, BILSTEIN, KONI ETC.
