[charlie0882004]

im getting some d2 full coilovers. i want to drop the car 2.5 to 3in. i know the wheels go inward. so with a drop like this what do i need? i know an alinement but anything else? like chamber kit etc.... because i want to drop it in the summer and rise it in winter so the hight is going to keep changing. and pls add the prices to thanks

just drop it first and see how the tires wear. you might not even need a camber kit. or you may decide you only need one in the front (not much weight in the back). later.

I checked on that cuz i'm bout to drop my car a lil lower too. The shop I went to said I might not need a camber kit. Instead, I might just be able to get the car aligned. They told me estimated cost to get a 4 wheel alignment (if no camber kit is necessary) will run me bout $80..........(jus my lil .02 cents)

I just dropped mine about 2" and I am roughly 2 degrees negative camber out of spec in the front and 1 in the rear. If you can put up with the camber, that is fine, but there is no stock adjustment for it.

Like Type G said, lower it and then align it, see what you have and correct it from there.

You are going to need an alignment anyway to correct the rear toe. The rear suspension geometry on the Accord is designed to toe slightly under compression, so it will be out of spec.

i say just throw 2 washers in the rear and get a camber kit for the front. when they do an alignment, they adjust the camber kit for you. you might not NEED a camber kit, but itll only help to have one.

btw, all your questions are answered in the lowering faq 101 as well as the suspension thread index.
