(SUSPENSION) HIPERMAX S for CIVIC (FL1)
Code No. 80300-AH011
HIPERMAX S, which has evolved damping force characteristics, durability, and aesthetics, offers the best "Driving Comfort" in the history of HKS suspension.
- The kit includes an upper plate positioning bolt for camber adjustment on the front side. It is fixed at the standard position of the stock, and the camber adjustment can be possible in plus or minus 0.5 deg.
- The product is set to a stable suspension; the roll speed has been optimized based on the setting that moves flexibly while increasing the roll rigidity with the inverted front suspension and increased spring rate.
- The setting is the best match for the powerful engine and solid body. Please enjoy the ride comfort that HIPERMAX produces.

*1. Height from road surface to fender arch.
*2. Height at factory is the data tested at HKS with the setting of Full Kit. (HKS' recommended setting.)
*3. Adjustable range (However, the lowest value may not be road legal.
Even within the adjustable range, car body, arm etc. may contact. In such case, it will be hard to drive.
Damper oil leakage or any other problems caused by low ride height setting from the factory setting will void the warranty of the product.)
*4. Drivable range that there is no contact of car body or arms etc. (However, change of tire/wheel size may cause a problem.)
Caution). Actual data depends on each vehicle.
