What are your guys' fender gap, and fender to ground heights? front and rear.

My scrapes on everything, but I wish it was lower for aesthetics.

As an asian myself, I've never been into Civic's or anything like it. But, I will admit, your Civic looked good and simple. Of course, I like the Mustang better :boobies:

I'm asian, never really got into import cars but I was into mini-trucks. Damn giving my age away haha! Love my mustang, so tempted to move up to a GT500 but it's quite nice not having a car payment...

Your civic is what I considered to be slammed!

oh wow lol why dont you do it dude? lowered cars always look better, even a geo metro slammed would look legit hahaha i dont like bags though, my old windsheild banner said "bagsr4bishes" lmfao it was funny
I think a midget would be taller than your old civic ... Holy Shit

I really wish this thread was simply "lowered on 18's". The whole "slammed" thing (Anything more then like 1.5 to 1.7 inches) is only for the 18 year olds who could care less about practicality, or haven't YET had a bad/embarrassing experience on the road yet from being so low.

And for the record I have actually always thought the newer civic coupes are really cool/clean looking little cars, but damn, those cars above are just way too low and the way the rear tires bend inward. Just way overdone and kinda guido's up what would otherwise be a clean ride. I remember seeing an S2000 on the highway lowered that much and it definitely grabs your attention...although kinda cool...the way it looked and the way it was bouncing...was also comical to watch. To each their own I suppose. Just my opinion.

Last time I saw mini-trucks on the road was in the early 90's. Wow how does he even drive that car? My trucks were slammed and I remembered how much a pain in the ass it was to drive. With the newer suspension nowadays though, I'm sure things are quite different...

my car is actually really practical, its not even low enough to scrape on anything, and it handles alot better then it ever did, whats the point of having the best handling for a daily driver, you know you dont go to an actual road racing track and you cant apex turns in a nieghborhood so there is not point actually, so looks of being slammed and handling is good to me, just my opinion but different strokes for different folks

monster truck wheel gap is not acceptable for me. I have been driving lowered cars for a while and there have plenty of wtf moments where scraping is unavoidable but I have "yet" to do any damage. I do piss off people when driving on steep entrances and speedbumps but it doesnt bother me one bit
