6 Things That Will Break When You Stance Your Honda

So you want a low-rider? Here are 6 important things to consider before you stance your Honda.

1. Your Oil Pan is not Indestructible.

When you are riding so low, it only takes one unfortunate hit from a pot hole or other roadway malady to crack that oil pan. If you think you survived, it won't be long before all that black gold take a dump and shoots your rods through your engine block. Consider your driving environment before dropping your cash to drop your car.

2. Suspension Woes

So you bottom out and thankfully, your oil pan didn't bite it. What about that horrid knocking you are now hearing? Your suspension tie rods or boots just left the building as they etched your calling card on the asphalt below. That's gonna hurt.

3. Riding on Rails

So your lowered Civic is so tricked out that you are riding on rails. Literally. It's all fun and games until you grind away your frame.

4. Bondo is Your Friend

Luckily, Bondo is relatively cheap. Better stock up because your bumpers will be taking a beating with every dip and hill in the road. Perhaps you should paint your ride primer gray and save money in the long run matching up colors every weekend.

5. Used Wheels

You lowered your ride and have some spiffy low pro tires. While your ride is phat, your wallet is thin. That's because you are spending your monthly pay check every week replacing busted, blown and stretched tires. Maybe you should consider lifting your Civic and putting on some monster truck tires instead.

6. Your Pride

Perhaps you stanced your car because you like to turn heads and that beefs up your pride. As quickly as heads turn watching you cruise down the boulevard, they'll turn even faster when they hear your pride and joy bottom out, blow a tire or two and dump about 4 quarts of the black stuff all over the road. How fast will your pride deflate when Jimbo's Towing hooks up your Civic for what will a monumental hit to your wallet?
