In need of suspension info
I have a 2010 SH-AWD TL. I just recently bought some BC coilovers. I'm going to lower it about 1.5 to 2 inches depending on how my 20x10 offset 40 sit. I don't plan on slamming it due to it being my daily and the shitty Louisiana roads. I would like to buy all the appropriate items before I bust it wide open and do the install. I'm just looking for a slight drop where it looks clean and still feels somewhat stock. I plan on buy a camber kit too. I just had a few questions.
-What would be an appropriate height for lowering for not cambering as much if I didn't have to buy a camber kit?
-What damping settings are good for a stock like ride?
-What's the difference between Spec D, Ingalls, SPC, J-Power camber kits besides the "you get what you pay for"?
-Do I need the front camber kit too? Some peoples on the 4G group says I don't, why?
If anyone has some pics of a 1.5 to 2 inch drop with 20''s could you post it up? I would like to see how it sits. Thanks! You're awesome and have a wonderful day!

The inconvenient truth
-What would be an appropriate height for lowering for not cambering as much if I didn't have to buy a camber kit?
1 to 1.5 inches
-What damping settings are good for a stock like ride?
Not sure probably in the middle somewhere, drive it and find out

No idea, I'm in the market for some camber kits so I would like to know aswell.
-Do I need the front camber kit too? Some peoples on the 4G group says I don't, why?
You might need it or you might not. Lowered it, get an alignment done and you will find out.. I need one just for my front right. Not the front left. Why? I'm not sure.

1.5" would the the lowest I would go. I had that drop with -2.5 camber in the rear and tires still looked brand new after a year
-What damping settings are good for a stock like ride?
Since you got the Accord BC coils, hard to say. I would finish the install with the back seat out and play with the dampening until you have it where you want.

You probably won't, but every car comes out different. I had H&R Springs and Ksport coils and they settled to -1.5 camber left and right. As long as your toe is correct, you won't need a front camber kit.

I found some SPC rear camber kit if you're interested. I've read reviews that this is the best brand to get. This is the cheapest I've found them on the internet. This is only one side of the vehicle.
