Do alot of people cut & rebox the tower alot? ? ? to sit that low? ? ?

Search on HT you arent the only one, youll find solutions that will work rather than using up the little bit of space you have in your wheel wells. Plus if you youre using coilovers on those steelies the potential side wall flex isnt helping.

Well i had a different set of wheels on the car prior to this figure the 13in steelies had alot do with it.. IE like you said the side walls being 'fat'.

This is how it was driven on until last september

i can't stand to search on hondatech but ill look into it on there thanks.

x2.... You beat me to it.

B-Well

the car is structurally fine. raise it up. and your fine

sure, anyone can have a "M4d TyT3 slammeedd yo" car and disregard every aspect of the suspension.

or if you have knowledge of the vehicles suspension design and the stress put upon it you can redesign the weak points so you can be lowered and still retain ride quality as well as giving your parts a decent lifespan.

Has nothing to do with being m4d tyt3 lol trust me def not like that esp with the cars that i've put together & owned personally w/ helped build. I just wanted a clean lowered DD. The car has been the same height but w/ those 13in steelies shit was def sitting to low. Its sitting higher now with the 15in steelies on it & actually steering is alot better with these 15s on it compared to the 13s. Never had an issue with the ride until putting the 13s back onto the damn car.

I found a few thread on HT after looking a bunch of different ways for the answer thread lol But still didnt find a DIY type thread to box the shock tower from the UCA hitting it. Just found a bunch of photos w/ holes in the shock tower (& a bunch of 3mount strut bars that were pretty beefy)

This happens alot with your adjustable ball joint style camber kits as they are alittle taller then the stock ball joint it replaces. so it bottoms out regularly. not much of a fix for it. you can either raise it up or i'd take a hole saw to it and at least make it look cleaner if you gonna rock it bumped.

Not taking a hole saw to it but plan is to weld the crack up in the next week or so waiting on getting paid. & then being on 15in wheel seems to help the car from bottoming out to keep the UCA from hitting the tower. 13in wheel was the big factor on it hitting & bottoming out the car being where the coilovers are set also going to recheck the stiffness setting on coilovers today since im off work & actually have the car back at home.
