Just dumped my ej8

[EJ_Ian]

Ok so I just installed some adjustable coilovers and kept my stock shocks. I got it really low I was just wondering what are some things I should get done now I.E. allignmet, lower tie arms anything that will help me not destroy my barnd new tires.

 

[Mr.Baker]

alignment

Yes.

Slammed is the word your looking for, dumped in most places means you disposed of it. Anyways buy some shocks because if you are low you'll blow the stock ones. You can try to find a shop to align it but you'll need a front and rear camber kit to really get it set right.

Get quality shocks. And please don't say eBay coil sleeves.... If so, sell your setup and get something good.

Otherwise, get an alignment asap.

THIS!!! if you're going with coil sleeves rather than coilovers, then make sure they are quality... and you'll definitely need upgraded shocks because the stock ones will blow real soon.

Things OP should do:

1. Alignment
2. Post pics of said "dumped" Ej8

Actually... in regards to a camber kit, the 6th Gen Civic frame actually induces an absurd amount of rear camber when lowered drastically (I know first hand...)

A rear camber kit and a reasonable height would put you in a great position to fit almost any type of wheel you would want.

Wheel width and offset play a part in camber...

I have a 6th gen as well, no rear camber kit but pretty low on just stock 14" hubcaps. I have no tire wear either, but that is due to the toe being on point.

your toe is on point, so you dont have tread wear
