Honda Access shocks with Tein S-tech lowering springs, 30mm drop on the front, 55mm on the rear. Nice comfortable ride, handles very well :twisted: but speed bumps can be a problem :roll:

Kony yellows + Eibach spring on my dayli, for me Eibach springs on stock shocks is a a really bad idea.

Does someone here have a 5th gen with Eibach springs and 17" wheels with 45 thick tyres ? How much does it "lifts" compared to the stock 15" of a 2.0l 5th gen ?

I used to. In terms of handling it was much better than the 205/50/16 I have now, but that may have been the wider wheel too. I've never had 15s so can't compare.
