Coilovers (lowest)

I dont know if this has been covered already seeing that im still new to the site but I was wondering if anyone knew what coilovers bring the car down to the ground most ?

Im wanting to lower the Fit a lot more but I dont necessarily mean be slammmed.

If anyone can help out feel free. Thanks

cant get any lower than being slammed. if you're not lookin to be slamm any coilover system should do. beware of ride quality though.

i think the Ground Control, T1R, Cusco and Skunk2's (in no order) can go real low

all make great coilovers, it's just a matter of taste.
there's a few threads out there with reviews of most of the coilovers out
some of the coilovers require drilling of the front mounts

but the skunk2's are direct bolt on.

Yes. All ive heard from Xavier and from other forums is that Skunk 2 will lower my car like crazy.

I stole a pic from Xavier when he went to Import Alliance to post up here he took for me of what I pretty much want my Fit to be sitting at

Those are Skunk2... Same as mine.

The front can go 1in lower, the rears are as low as it can go.
Wheels are 15x7 +26mm offset.

My boyfriend took it and some other pics of your Fit at IA.

He was the one that came in the garage and asked you what suspension you had. But im sure a lot of other people asked you that too......
