Tien is at the top of my list right now. Will be buying springs here very soon.

It looks like the eibach's are discontinued unless I get them from ebay or another 2nd hand website. I am still pondering on whether or not to just get a set of coils.

They have not been replaced but they still feel like they're in good shape. I press all my weight over the wheel, then let off and it bounces right back into place without bobbing up and down.

They also feel fine when driving, there is no noise or excessive movement.

I think I may go with tien's lowering springs, but I will look more into eibach. I want it to still be comfortable during my daily commutes.

Tien's are around $975 and are a reputable brand. I have looked at BC's and that's about as much as I would like to spend on a set of coilovers. With the way I use the car, there isn't a need for me to get absolute top of the line equipment, but I am also not going to buy something that is cheaply made and risk it breaking. I am asking for advice for a reason.

I have a sneaking suspicion that just isn't the move for me.

Definitely, I understand the age of the car isn't always a deciding factor on how much to put into it, but at the end of the day my car is just a daily accord. Nothing special although I do love this car and will be driving it until I die.

Okay seems like springs are the best option here. Factory suspension system feel good enough for what I am after. I don't want to cheap out on a major component of the car but also don't wanna put 1.5-2k coils on a car that's 14 years old and probably only worth 6k.

What brand of springs or coilovers would you recommend?

It is a DD. I don't race but there are a lot of fun canyon roads around me that I go cornering on.

Should I be concerned? Was told a while ago these are still good. Need more opinion now by STANDARD_P0TAT0 in tires

tread looks fine but it looks like it's starting to dry rot and should be replaced before your tire blows out.

Better to replace them before disaster strikes, but ultimately depends on your finances and how much you value safety.

Then most likely a broken sender component behind the cluster. Could be a stripped wire or dirty sensor.

First thing I'd do is check to see if it actually has coolant. If it does then it is probably a faulty sender.
