All depends on how long you want to keep the 96. Is it your daily driver? That's a lot of miles. personally, I would sell what you got and invest in a 98-2000 model with lower mileage. Good deals on those now due to the age. Then do you suspension and wheels. Just the vvti alone makes it worth it. If it is a project car for weekends then keep it. imo. Either way.

If this car sees duty as a your winter ride in snow, I'd say no. Well, at least as far as driving it with 19's-20's with the reduced ground clearance. Granted you can raise it up and drive it with winter 16's if necessary. How "slammed' is slammed? Somewhat tucking tire or tucking rim?

slam it! but also remember it's not just coilovers and wheels and you're done when it comes to slamming the car. take into account fender work, exhaust tuck, possible fender relocation, etc.
stuff piles up quick, but it sure looks damn nice slammed.

one of my L'sportline mufflers broke a weld at the H pipe over the weekend.
I guess it comes down to... is it a DD or daily driven toy. I'm slammed and drive slow and break necks all day. Daily driven. When it snows I'll probably be plowing the streets. But i have an Acura TL as a back up car. Thinking about getting a subaru for winter. If I was in a non snow region I would have one car and a motorcycle to go along with my vintage mopeds.

the lowest point on my car is the flange where the exhaust manifolds connects to the H pipe. I'm afraid Id snap the studs off the head when it bottoms out on anything a inch above the ground.
