Those of you with H&R sport springs?

Questions for you guys and gals is, for those of you that have H&R sport springs(1.4"/1.3" drop)

Did you get that much drop when you installed them and got a little more after break-in or did it break-in and you ended up getting that much drop? Also, did you need to trim the bump stops any?

Just curious since I'm taking my Eibachs off and putting on my H&R's. Looking to get a little more drop without going coilovers and want to know what to expect when installed...

No one?

Nobody else has H&R sport springs?

Hello? Is this thing working?

I'm pretty sure I put this in the right section..........

Yes, yes I did.

I have the 1.8/1.7's on mine. Love the stance and love the ride quality, and I didn't have to trim the bumpstops, but may end up doing that in the future.

I have the 1.7 and 1.8's aswell...trimmed bump stops, you have too that low... these H&R 's settle more than other springs thats for sure...my fenders are right ontop of my tires, thankfully i do not rub at all.... The only problem is the front struts do botomm out and hit hard on certain bumps

Installed them! They look and sit perfect!

I was a little concerned trying to do the 1.8/1.7! I figured there wasn't much room for travel that low. 1.4/1.3 did just fine!

Thanks for the help guys!
