Just lowered my TL-S w/F&F-HTspec TYPE-1 coilovers
Wheels spacers I've been considering, but still not sure cause I really like how it looks now...
?
The ass end settled ALOT more than I expected and I had to raise it up about 3/8 of an inch... And do i wish I would have got type 2's? Nope not at all the way the type-1's ride is damn near perfect, extremely comfortable, not soft by any means and no where close to too stiff, it's so smooth over bumps and blemishes in the road, but still I avoid the big holes of course! And the handling noticeably improved... I get nothing but compliments on how it rides compared to stock, smooth sailing B-)
I know you haven't had them on that long, but how much have they settled if any? I was thinking about getting these as well and I want the fender line to meet the top of the tire, but not overlap. Any regrets not go with the type 2

Looks really good man. Any problems with scraping your fender?
No fender problems or scraping problems, unless it's something steep but I avoid it if possible, I've only scraped the front a few times but it's the black underspoiler that gets scraped, only once or twice the lip, THAT I am very careful about and I must say I do a good job and not scraping it lol
i wish you were local...i would love to ride in a 3g with these...im reconsidering just getting the f1's for the price difference over the f2's...idk though i like the thought of having the adjustable dampening coming from the tein basics on my accord
I wish I could take a vacation to Florida
and I'd let u take a ride haha..
Ohio sucks sometimes
My previous car was a 2000 Eclipse GT and I had done the same thing too it, dumped to the floor.
Loved the look of it, seemed to take corners better and could launch it from the start better because the front end would stay down, but after about 6 months my front struts had gone to shit and I got tired of slamming my frame on speed bumps.
After that experience, I will not touch the suspension on my TL-S, especially since this is considered a luxury car.
Also quite annoying to have to worry about raping the front bumper on the curb everytime I park... Get used to it but peace of mind is so much better imo lol

believe me i know all about ohio and how bad the weather sux....i grew up in canton basically my whole life before moving to florida almost 4 years ago
i don't know if anyone has asked this but how low did you drop it?
planning on getting my type-s dropped sometime this spring if i get the money

how stiff is the ride
I can't really describe how stiff it, but all I can say is that its very comfortable to drive and the stiffness of them is good for cruising around and it's a good feel performance wise.. Im happy with the way it rides, I personally don't see the need in spending the extra money for type 2's but that's me...
dam your ride looks sick man!!!! I love how low it is. is that all the way down 3" right? i have been looking for an opinion on the ride before i order mine but you just made it. just to be sure its the ht spec coilover damper kit type1 right for like 600
No I'm not dropped 3" lol I think I'm at 2 3/8" drop, I could go lower but I don't think that's very practical haha! Me and
Stiffdogg took some pictures on Sunday so hopefully he posts em up soon so u can see some sideshots!
