Problems with suspension for Civic VTi - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

mixoulas · 06-26-2002, 07:55 AM

I have a Civic Hatch Back VTi (B16A2) '00.

I have Bilstein Sport shock absorbers and Eibach Pro Kit springs.

Some times in turns the tires touch the inside of the fender and also in hard humps.

Eibach says that the car should be lower 1,5 inch but mine is more than 2,5 inch

Does anyone have the same problems or know something about it?

Do the Blisteins you installed have adjustable ride height? If so, that can be where the added drop came from if you installed them as such.

No they have not adjustable ride height.

Hmmm.... where did you buy the Pro-kits? Did they install them? I don't think there is an easy way to tell if you have Pro-kits or Sportlines installed... It would suck if they gave you the wrong springs. Really, you shouldn't be having those problems even with sportlines...

I have to investigate that.

Thank you anyway.
