How do people with there car lowered get in steep driveways without bending there fenders. My tire touched the fender when I turned in and went at an angle and the weight shifted. How do they do it?
I had problems rubbing as well. The first pic is lowered. The next two are BACK TO STOCK! I gotta say, I'm not unhappy with it. I got tired of scraping 10 times a day. Completely made my driving habits tame/lame. Now I am back tearing up the roads and having much more fun.

Wow, that is a mean looking S2k. Love those rims as well.

That pic makes the car look a lot like a Viper (and that's not a slam in any way).
SSR comps at stock height. Probably not planning on lowering either since I track the car. These wheels are about to become my track wheels with SSR lm9's as my daily driving setup.
Just ordered some AO48's today with 265's on the rear. Thats the main reason for not wanting to lower.

Honda engineers spent millions on the suspension setup, and Im not gonna ruin it with $150 dollar springs.
Amen to that. Many people on this board do not understand how much development Honda and Showa go through to design such a nice suspension. This car is one of the few cars I know that come with remote resevoir rear shocks from the factory. I can't understand replacing this suspension with cheaper kits. The rear requires a lot of shock travel, thats why it comes with RS from the factory and even at extreme loads there are bumpsteer issues. I really recommend the Bilsteins for a full street car and the KW's V.3's for a street/track car, then the Tein SRC's for a mostly track and sometimes street car. Obviously if it's a full race car I'd recommend the higher end kits like Moton, Sachs, JRZ's, Penskes, or Ohlins.
BTW, I gotta know NFRs2000NYC, where in NYC do you have acessible woods to take such hot pictures? Those pictures you have of your car iwtht he red leaves should be in a Honda brochure. Very nice indeed!
