Lowering 2002 EX Accord, Need Advice! ( Please Read)

I currently own a 2002 EXL Accord Coupe.

I have bought 18" Konig Verdict's (Opal) - Offset: 45mm.
They will be wrapped in KUMHO ECSTA Supra 712 in 225/40R18.

My question is, will a 1.5" drop on Eibach PRO-KIT Springs lower the car enough, or do I need to go lower? If anybody has 18's on their car, would you please post some pics and say how much of a drop you have so I can see what it would look like. I would greatly appreciate it.

i saw your post on accord... anyway, you have 225s? i would check the clearance from the top of your front tire and the front fender. if you go low enough or bottom out, you'll scrape the fender or worse, especially if you have a heavy load. This guy stopped by at my friends shop asking to lower his 2001 accord, this guys tires where just too wide and stuck out the fender. that's what we told him about getting springs, or get different tires (215,205)

just letting you know

My rims have a 45mm offset, so I can have 225's.
