I guess I didn't realize how friggin 4x4 this thing rides until I put some big wheels on it...

Before with OEM 16s:



After with OEM (Infinity) 18s:

 

nice ride.

 

Very nice. Wouldn't hurt to drop it but I don't think you absolutely need too, it looks great.

 

Dont drop it.Unless your a ricer,then drop it.I hate it when people drop nice cars.The paint looks hot,what kinda red is that ??

 

You are not a ricer to drop the car. A nice drop would make it look better. Or you can slam it like mine

 

I don't think dropping the car makes you a ricer if you're doing it for valid reasons...Lol.

Don't be so quick to yell ricer.

 

hes been called a ricer before probaly.

 

Yeah, with my 100% stock 96.

 

drop it i'll look better. and theres nothing rice about dropping a car.

 

it looks like an off road vehicle. i would drop it. i dont know why nissan decided we need 4 inches of wheel gap.

 

RICER!







...haha lmfao

 

Wow yeah improving the ride, handling, and stance of the car is definitely a ricer thing to do

 

LOL No you don't need to drop it...































You need that ish SLAMMED!

 

i guess im a ricer.....

 

My half *** photoshop

 

your a moron. shut up and get out


to the OP, car looks great, invest in suspension next.
really wish i had a crimson blaze sometimes...

handling is dramatically improved with just eibach pro-sports, even without new struts... and the inch drop you'd get from them would look real nice

 

That is goofy high, love the paint though.

 

a 1"-1.5" drop will look good don't "slam" it though

 

There's a difference between dropping an already low Civic straight down to the bump stops on worn out OEM struts and lowering the ride height some on an ungodly high car. Ever see a stock Audi A4? Ever seen a stock gen 4 Maxima? There are some right height issues I am not going to lie.

Don't get me wrong, I am normally not a fan of dropping cars at all, but these cars need it bad.

 

I think that looks totally sweet...

White,

Thanks for the work...

 

I dont like the black mud guards.
Anyhow... you definitely need to drop it AT LEAST 1inch.

 

The lower the drop the better, at least 2 inches all around. the cheap way would be to go with illumina shocks and sprint springs 2 inch drop. Or the more expensive way, coil overs. Either way you go dropping the car will enhance looks as well as performance. You cant go wrong with that.

 

def-a-drop with them nice finiti rims.

 

The max drop preferred on Illuminas is 1.75" according to the Tokico. I'm running Illuminas w/progress Springs no camber bolts or major adjustments needed. You might wanna read some testomonials on lowered springs B4 spending your money! Better go ride in a few lowered Maximas...I love my Progress springs.

 

Yep, going from 16" to 18" rims raises the whole car 2 inches... Dropping it one/two inches would just restore the stock height of the car. But it still looks nice the way it is. Your call

 

A nice drop never hurt none. A few Stillen lips maybe but thas about it.

 

OEM... Crimson Blaze is the color name. The code is AR2.

 

THIS IS WHAT IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE!

 

It will... it will... just gimme a little time.

 

Too bad sprints ride like crap. I say don't get too over zealous with the lower. You probably want to preserve some ride comfort. Sucks having a suspension so low your fillings rattle out.

My car didn't get a 2 inch lift when I put 18's on...

S

 

Actually, going from the OEM size (215/55/16) to the size I'm running right now (235/45/18) there's only a +.5" different in wheel/tire radius.

 

shoulda gone with 235/40/18s for identical radius.

But def drop the car...

 

STOCK!! NOOB

 

I would say just drop it a good inch or 1.5 inches.

 

mmm....crimson red i love it

 

Well see'in it's a 4x4 right now, I gotta have 'em. Can't legitamately go four wheelin without "mudflaps" now can ya?

Giterdone!.. ain't skeered!.. cowboy up y'all!
