Thanks,i will let you know how i feel about them after installation.
Wheel upgrade eh! can't wait to see them.




I am excited as well,as for coilovers vs springs i think it depends on what you are looking for,i was willing to go with either but i feel that the springs is better suited for my needs,ie mild drop,near stock comfort with improved handling etc

I will not track my car nor will i slam it,if i needed complete control over ride/damping adjustments then i would have def. gone with the coilovers,i am also hopeful that when the stock struts go there will be some better aftermarket ones available.

Really looking foward to this one as well.




I will certainly post some before and after pics,thanks for the kind words.






If the Tein comfort sport was available for the Tl's i would be all over it,i am sure that the coilovers take it to the next level.Everyone that has had or have the H&R's seems pleased with it.





You know what..........I agree lol.

manutd

def. want to see!!!

Sadly im stuck on wheels for the car yet again, my dream wheels are Work VS-XX but cant really justify dropping 4k on them cause i want 20's. (i have other huge priorities like saving for a house haha)

my next choice would be concave = vossens but its so hard picking between their old line up and new line up.... i told myself if i havent decided by the end of August im gonna hold off and get them next year.

KK, you'll love the H&R's. They're not expensive and do so much for your car.

pics?

KarKraze

Install is scheduled for this Saturday,pic will be up shortly after.


Thank you Steve,i keep hearing good things about the H&R springs and after getting a ride in a 4G equipped with it, i was convinced that it is the way for me to go

Saw this car in person and met the owner this summer at Speedstar. Pics don't do this car enough justice.

Love that white stitching. A friend of mine has red stitching and its pretty fresh

KarKraze

Appreciate the kind words,




Double stitching looks sweet on all upholstery.

KarKraze

Springs are being installed right now,will post pic later.

Cant wait. Were the back seats difficult to remove?

KarKraze

I did not do the install myself,the shop that did it has worked on the 4G before,so no problems.

KarKraze

Will post some more pics later,these are before and after measurements taken from the center of the rim to the edge of the fender

I like what you did using a tape measure to measure the height of your TL before and after installing HR spring. Thanks for the reference!.

LawnPro

Nice pics of the ride height change. How does it ride now?

KarKraze

I was trying to dial in the drop as much as possible,the springs will settle and probably drop a little bit more.Big plus for me is no fender rolling was required.



Thaks LP,the ride comfort is as close to oem as it could be,on rough pavement it is a bit more noisy,on straight highways, offramp and onramp it feels superb.Def less body roll.

Two things i noticed but did'nt anticipate,it feels easier to get out of the car and visibility in front is improved....maybe my mind is playing games with me lol.

For a total cost of $620 for parts,installation and alignment i feel it is an excellent mod since it has given me everything i wanted.

Recall

Nice, I did notice getting in and out as well lot easier my heel actually hit the asphalt as I was getting out didn't anticipate that it would also affect egression in a good way .... lol. Are you able to test with load in the car or go over bumps for rubbing? the reason why I am asking is because of the tire height 40.
Enjoy the ride.

Good idea with the tape measure. It's a little difficult to see (the tires blend in to the dark wheel wells), but well done.

KarKraze

Good to know that my mind isn't playing games with me,no rubbing so far.The tire height of 40 is in line with 19" specs and i am def loving the improved handling.




Yes,it is a little difficult to see but it does give an idea of how much drop you will get,thanks.

KarKraze

KarKraze

Car looks good bro. Is that trunk spoiler OEM or custom?

KarKraze

Thank you for the compliment,coming from you mean's i must be on the right track lol.

Spoiler is oem,must be the angle of the pic ??

Steven Bell

Very respectable drop-for the 4G TL, that looks perfect. Not too much.

KarKraze

Nice compliment LP,but not quiet there as yet.



Steven,tbh i would'nt want it any lower.It is just right for my taste,i am trying to keep the car sporty yet elegant.

Steven Bell
