Coil-Overs vs. Shocks&Springs
Don't the yellows have an adjustable perch for corner weight balancing? It's a stretch, but that makes them a little adjustable .... like an inch.
LMAO @ Ground Control Sleeves!!!

Not that I'm any expert, but I've seen this terminology used;
Full coilovers, and Coilover sleeves.
Before finding AMR Engineering, I had settled on Bilstein shocks, and H & R springs. But I wanted the height adjustment for winter. So rather than going w/ coilover sleeves, I thought it made sense to get the full coiloverunit that has a shock and spring rate designed for my intended use. The AMR's are awesome.
By the time I spent the cash on Bilsteins and H & R's it was about the same total anyway.

Bilstein with H&R springs is exactly the setup that I want but not the cash that I want to spend. I agree with the terminology thing too... a "true" coilover setup is a threaded shock not just a sleeve

I went for the inbewtween solution to the problem. I got skunk2 street coilovers which are just the spring and adjuster and a couple other parts and theyre great. Dropped mine almost 3 inches, I can adjust them and it handles freakin amazing. But they aren't full coilovers and theyll need shocks soon cuz I dont wanna bottom out. Youre choice though.
so you just got the sleeves. yeah, i am goin with full coilovers. btw, i never heard of a three inch drop on an accord without aftermarket shocks. you better get those shocks soon, or...you know what will happen.
yea its pretty low and they aren't even all the way down but i think im just gonna raise them some cuz ive bottomed out like 3 times already not bad but I hate it and I go over speed bumps twice a day due to my gay high school. Anybody have suggestions for good shocks though.
