lowering honda accord with 15 INCH WHEELS

[JAPIMPORT]

hi there i was looking into getting a set of wheels for my accord awhile ago but decided to stick with the original 15 inch thats on it at the moment,but id like to put the 16 inch that is on the sport model i think,in the future,for now i was going to lower it with some springs,but im not sure what type to get and would there be much difference in looks,would springs of a type r fit and would it be much of a drop,ive seen someone selling shocks and springs of a type r i don t know if it would fit,anyone have any pics of an accord lowered with 15 inch wheel or 16,ive seen some cheap sets online but there too cheap so are probably crap ride handling,ive seen another pair called tenzo lowering springs.dont no much about them as ive never lowered a car in my life,ive always just bought big wheels any advice would be great

If your lowering go with a nice set of 17s. Trust me it will loom better

Go for a set of eibach springs if your not lowering via coilovers
had them on my civic coupe years back and they are awesome
best lowering springs money can buy

only a subtle drop though at 30 to 35mm
if you want more of a drop go for coilovers, meister r, tein, d2 etc
