I ain’t no stunter :lol

> Are you replacing the shock also? Not sure how many miles on your stock stuff… but maybe something you also want to do, with some meant for the shorter spring. Although the car you posted doesnt look crazy low so may not be a huge concern. Love my form/functions coils in my TL (Type2 adjustable) and Civic (Type1 non-adjustable), going to try H&R coils out in the Tsx I think. The f/f ride nice actually, but will lower the car more than you want I think, even at the highest setting. Im a lot of help right? lol

Nah I’m not.

I’m at 84k now…but I just had an inspection done and the guy doing it said my car is immaculate for it’s mileage. I should be alright.
