Just dropped my TSX on BC Coils today. Tried to max them i couldnt even turn my OEM wheels when maxed out. So I raised it a bit and i'm still rubbing fenders when I'm near full lock in motion. I have around 1mm fender clearance when I full lock while I'm stationary. So I'll have to raise it a bit more tomorrow. Will be getting front adjustable joints soon but theyre all -1.5 lowest I need like -3.0 because I'm still on my stockies right now but when my wheels come in, I'll be 19x9.5...

By the way guys, the long awaited pictures of my car... Crappy INSTAGRAM quality LOL and dirty body. Meh~ I'll take pictures once my wheels come in.

Not sure how to copy the URL of the instagram pictures so I'll just drop links here.

Thanks brah. Unfortunately I need to raise it a bit cos I'm rubbing fenders like a biatch. have a minor bump on it from the inside of the driver fender already. Not too noticeable from the exterior but still breaks my heart. Will be installing front ball joints this week as well but dont think i can remain this low even with them, especially when I get my 19s. As we both live in Toronto, I'm sure you'd know how poorly maintained some of our roads are

Ahh that's a shame, but I can relate. The roads around my area are fantastic, but the minute I head downtown it's all over. Your car would be toast

I originally wanted to go with a lower drop + 19s -- but working in Liberty Village is a trek with that setup. I opted for the Eibach 1.0" + 18" wheels --- BUT -- it doesn't look as nice as your setup.

Aha thanks. I raised it 1" all around FOR NOW it looks 4x4 LOL. Picked up my front camber kit just now. Waiting on wheels (still) then I'm going to reconfigure my setup.

Thanks brahh! No fender mods in that current setup, but i'd advise rolling front fenders if I were staying that low. My front wheels dont clear fenders when turning and it has minor rubs :/

I'm worried driving with fenders rubbed :/ I hit my driver fenders slightly already :/ minor booboo. Dont think im going to be dumped ever tho, im kinda a function over form guy but seeing how i got the TSX i felt maybe i buy more into the form side lol.

Lol Nah man not willing to pull. you know how we have the flat edged fenders, when we pull it we lose the form of it. i absolutely cannot take that out of form fender lol its a pet-peeve kinda thing haha. Maybe i'll roll a bit but minor as well cos it'll disrupt the flow of the fender as well LOOOOL i'm obviously not meant for this car culture LOL

LOL yea i hit my fender lightly and i got scared LOL so i raised an inch. It's riding too high right now but meh its only momentarily. Will deal with it later on when wheels arrive.

The whole flat fender thing is true, some cars here with a pull look mangled while others look pretty clean, each to his own I guess lol

Thanks, I use a Nikon D7000.

And yea I wanted to embed pics but I couldnt save image from the Instagram website. But I realized how to bypass it so if I'm posting instagram pics, I'll embed those too.

Ok so I just took a few quick snaps of it 2 days after installation.

I wasn't planning on doing any work to the fender but turns out I had to. Front has been rolled and (unfortunately) slightly pulled, while the rear was just rolled (which wasn't necessary but just for precaution since I was getting the front done anyways).
Went for alignment an I currently have -1.1°/-1.1° for the front and -3.4°/-3.2° for the rear. I think I would actually have more camber in the front without the Eibach front kit but w/e already installed it. Whereas the back, it's all natural camber.

Now for the pics, like I said, it wasn't an actual shoot but just a few quick snaps. As you can tell, I still havent put up my roof wing yet. Been putting that off because I've been pretty lazy due to the heat in Toronto lol
