Hellow fellow European! ;)

I myself I am curious to know when those spring will be available, a lowered Civic changes the look drastically, day and night difference!

Too bad you didnt get a deal on a winterset?
Many dealers here give great deals on winter sets this time of year...

When we bought ours, we paid around 1200 euro (dealer made a mistake on the offer because in reality we had to pay around 120-200 euro more, but he let it go) for a nice winterset.
Rims are identical as on the summer set and the tire size are same as the stock summer tires: 235 17".

This is mine on its winterset:

Congratz on your Civic btw, it looks gorgeous, I bet your 1.5L feels noticable faster than my humble 1.0L :)

You are ditching the adjustable dampers?

L.E: I've only noticed now that you have the Sport, not Sport Plus. :) So no adjustable dampers.

well this is the end with civic x for me, i just got myself a new toy and sold my civic but americans cant enjoy it :(

it is a 2019 toyota yaris GRMN, 1.8litre ( 109.8 cu in. ) supercharged 212hp little race car...
only 600 were ever made 400 for europe and 200 for japan, this is insane 2,502 lb heavy
and 155.5 inch long toy... 6.3sec 0-100km/h and 143mph limited top speed...
driving experience is quite insane, car is crazy rigid no body roll and stiff as hell, on bad roads body will suffer... no idea how Gazoo Racing made this tiny machine handle so well... i love it so far.

Hello :)
traded in swift sport 2007 for 2018 civic x 1.5t hatch
so far i did 4500km (2800 miles), no problems whatsoever no oil dilution :)
i had swift lowered for around 7cm (2.8") on v-maxx coilovers
well swift is very small and short car i didnt had any problems over speedbumps
but civic if much longer so i will not get coilovers i know i can put coilovers to
1.5" drop but i know i cant handle my desires well i would slam it and then had problems
on the road... so i will get myself eibach sportlines and i see how that goes...
here in Slovenia we have very strict rules how to modify car... every single item u change must
have papers from manufacturer and so on...
for springs u have to get TUV papers, then you must get mechanic shop who are certified so you get
papers for proper instalation, then u need verified Allingment paper, and you go to DMV so
they inspect the papers and visual check of numbers on springs and papers match and you get a stamp
in small paper you must have with you when cops pull you over ;)
if you dont have all this sorted out your vehicle gets toed to police and your fucked...
so modifications are a bitch here beacuse most of tuning parts you guys use dont have certified A-Test papers
and you fail yearly inspection test :)
here it is impossible to change springs or coils home, or even muffler delete, and drive legally

ok have one question guys with 2018 hatch on sportlines any issues on rear alligment?
is it to low for normal use ? here we got 235/45/17 tires as stock

i had swift for 11 years and 140.000km (87.000 miles)
no issues and i drove it really hard most of the time
really hope honda is still making reliable cars ;)

I had a 2009 Swift Sport when I lived in the UK. Absolutely LOVED that car! The handling on those cars are amazing. I actually remember Jeremy Clarkson reviewing it on Top Gear and praised the car and even brought one for his nephew. Now living in Canada with a '17 LX.

Before I saw the pictures I though you'd got the new 4WD GRMN... The previous one is a hoot as well.
