Those wheels look good on your car. You should drop the car. I recommend H&R springs.

Thanks, the roads around here are horrible. I'm planning on getting coilovers one day.

I just installed H&R coilovers on my car and I wish I would've bought just springs.

Your cars 3 years newer than mine, your struts can take it for a while more than mine would I'd imagine, I really dont feel like paying for labor twice.

Looking good man! Like others have said, that thing is begging for a drop. Save up for coilovers so you don't blow your current shocks.

Might be moving back to the carolinas in december, I'm thinking coilovers & lowest perch. About 80% of the roads i drive on are fucked up. I'm also scared that the salt from the winters here might seize them up a little.

Fronts are easy to install, rears on the other hand are harder. I spent 45 minutes doing fronts and 3 hrs doing the rears. After buying the coils, I bought all the top hats new from acura so if I wanted to install my stock suspension back in, I can easily do so.

Where in the Carolinas? I'm right outside of Raleigh, NC.

The roads here aren't too bad, but there are a select few that fucking blow. Before you drop the car, take off your wheels and wipe/rinse everything down. Make sure you get all of that shit off of the car.
