Looking for H&R springs, Help!
« on: September 15, 2014, 07:35:14 pm »
So I'm looking to lower my car and iv decided on just springs as I'm low on funds as I'm back at college now. So I decided on some sportlines (eibach) but iv seen some people are getting a bigger drop than others, they are also confirming they have sportlines and not the other model? So iv researched on here and I prefer the look and reviews of the H&R springs with reports of -45-50mm I am yet to find any only -30mm models... Has any one got H&R springs with a record of the part number please!

Thanks guys Leo.

I had Eibach sportlines before I put on the SS's...both sets were supposed to be the same drop but, for some reason, the sportlines sat a bit high in the front. I asked around and searched and the SS's guys were showing that they got a bit more front drop than the sportlines.

This was with sportlines:
