i don't think so, but too each his own. try it alone first, then if you need it tighter try bars and tires. i going to a summer tire when i done with the oems.

Can I order this directly through my dealer when purchasing the car and having them install it for me as well?

Just curious because I don't see this as an option on the Honda website.

ya what he said^^ only 1 honda thats pretty close to me had a parts department that knows what it is so if u can't find a dealership with it, then just order one from like collegehillshonda.com then have someone install it( you can have honda do it but everyone here is telling me its way expensive)

Also when it comes to suspension/handling mods its important to do one at a time. This allows you to experience what each one does and lets you decide if its a good upgrade.

Only reason I'm asking is because my friend is the manager at a local Honda dealership. I'll show him the part #'s and links then maybe he can hook it up on parts and labor.

Should be about the same... it would just depend on tire size. I think.

I'm looking at this option too, but I'm hoping the 225 wil be a bit more plump, and fill the gap a bit more.
