cmack is the only person that can claim slammed... IMO. Notice hes tucking tires?
Thats what we call "fenda low."

I think my car is low, but it can always be lower. I want coilovers.

If I ever decide to do it. I would only do the rear since I feel that the front is already sitting low. But since your gonna cambering it should be ok. Post some pics whenever you get it done.

You dont need a camber kit with the Fit normally. I wouldnt cut front lowering springs.
The rears are no problem. Except when I cut mine; if the rear wheels lifted off the ground the springs would fall out.
The Progress rear bar fixed that.

I dont think theyre that expensive. Probably the best coilovers for the price.
Yes the price is up there but look at what youre getting.

i dont think they are that expensive either, they are worth the money, but i had to pay for tanabe springs, and megan coilovers, and 3 installation fees to learn that skunk2 was the best. i should have started with t1r and i would have been happy but i didnt know that fit coilvoers all have different ride heights, i figured all of them would lower it a ton but i was wrong. the skunk2s werent out when i got my fit. i like them, they probably arent for everybody.

Cause theyre stiff? I think its funny when people complain about lowering springs being stiff.
The car is pretty short wheel base, stock the car is stiff. So of course lowering springs are going to be stiff and have bounce.

I install stuff myself so Im good there. My Mx-6 has been through 5 suspension set-ups.
Current set-up is pretty nice.

Its my Fits turn for coilovers.

Having a huge lip doesn't make your car "low".

imo, you are not "low" unless you are tucking tires. =p
