Well am planning to get my accord new suspension but i really dont know how to go about it. I really would like it if u guys could help me. i want something i could ride on 18's and a smooth ride. I would like if u guys could tell me what strut and spring would go nice with 18's so i could be just on top of the tire. thanks :D

i have h and r race springs which r a 2.2 drop in front and 2.0 in the rear. I have them on kyb agx struts. It sits just on top of the tire and is pretty good handling but it is a little rough but that what u can expect. I am running 18s and they only really rub over nasty bumps and going up and down driveways but other then that i have no problem

well as u can see by my avatar before i had springs but i dont know how low was the drop and my tires never rubbed the only thing that was hitting was my exhaust and the front bumper. well thanks anybody else have some suggestions.

you can get mufflers that have an offset tip, so it sits higher up in the body. thats half of the problem. also, i rode around on neuspeed springs, and blown stock shocks for a while, and scraped a lot. when i put on illuminas, the ride is just slightly lower, but i don't scrape anything, there is just no bounce in the ride. overall, the ride quality is fairly good for stiff springs, serious shocks, and 215/40/17 tires.

Take a few minutes and read the other threads on this issue. That ought to give you a good answer.
