        Skunk 2 lowering springs have a GREAT drop and good ride, but if looking for adjustability, hit yourself up with some decent coilovers

                  I think 2-2.5 drop is the best. I have hr sport springs and koni yellows that give me like 2.1 drop in the back and 2.3 in the front (i think) but I am going to get some gc coilovers for my koni's cause it's hard to get the gap the same in the back and front

                        do not. i repeat, do not go for these. these are just coilover sleeves that fit around the existing shocks. these are adjustable, but they will make for a very bumpy ride and can slip. if you want adjustability, go for a set of full coilovers or bags. if adjusting the height isnt a big issue for you, then just get a spring/shock combo. do it right the first time so you dont have to spend money later.

                        as for the original poster, there are a few springs that can help you. the Neuspeed Race springs give the car a drop of 2.2 inches in the front and 2 in the back. they will settle to a bit lower. you can also buy these packaged together with some Koni Yellows. this is called the Super Cup Kit. you could get some H&R Race springs which are about the same. if you want to go REALLY low on a spring/shock combo, the Sprint Extremes will drop it 3 inches in the front and 3.25 in the back. there are others too, just check the link that was posted. good luck man.

                            I agree with him because I had my cb7 dropped like 3 inches it look badass but I don't where you from but in Tucson we have a lot of pot holes and it's not that fun trying to avoid all of them...I am running the neuspeed sports up front and the race in the back and to me it look really good...I am also riding the tokico blues and it works out pretty good...as for funding your drop just keep your eye out on ebay if you get lucky you get a killer deal of whatever you decide to use...good luck to you man

                              First thing if you don't live in the woods or where the roads are not always smooth heaven be careful how low you go doesn't matter how good it looks. Second if you go lower than 2 inches you should not ride on stock struts accords are too heavy. The shocks will on fell tight for about 6 months
