Below is a picture of my 99 accord with 19 inch Motegi FF7's and K Sport Coilovers. It's lowered just enough for my liking. My front bumper is 3.5 inches off of the ground!!! Sick huh?

On mine I think I would barely fit in 18's since its too low and if I went bigger it would rub. It all depends on drop level and taking consideration on speed bumbs and all that because you dont want to be scraping your exhaust like me... (in reply to thunder_x) Post #: 9

My dad owns a car lot and has his own lift. I have to drive my car up on 2x4's and then put the lift up under it. It's sort of a pain but the look is worth it! _____________________________ 1999 Honda Accord "EX"(SOLD) 1996 Nissan 240sx "SE" (in reply to traceyouinchalk) Post #: 10
