no there are two, I used the search feature of this site and they said that the 51858 were the original ones for 99-01 Tl and Accord, but then they made a 50103 for the Tl/Cl. Im trying to figure out which one gives a nicer looking drop on the Cl.

This was a quote from hemants in a post:

A little known fact is that H&R sports (the accord ones) are better for the CLS whereas the 50103 are better for the TLS. The TLS has a heavier rear so I would go:

TLS : Comptech, 50103, H&R OE front only

CLS : H&R Sport, Eibach Prokit, Comptech, H&R OE

in that order
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does this make sense? Maybe the 51858 is the way to go for the cl? Its also cheaper to

i went back and forth between the 51858's and the 50103's also. i eventually went with the 51858...i had a hard time finding the 50103's (backordered everywhere). i'm glad i went with the 51858's because the lowering in the rear is just perfect. you are correct in that the 50103's dont lower as much in the rear...perfect for the heavier assed TL. Either drop will be fine...my opinion is that the 51858's are the way to go though.

It's the 51858. Just installed it on my 01 CL-S 2 weeks ago and the drop is nice and even.

TL rear is heavier than the Accord and CL.

There is no H&R sport designed for the CL.

51858 = designed for the accord, more suitable for the CL

50103 = designed for the TL

51858 tends to give a bit of a reverse rake on the TL

51858 uses dark blue Sport springs in all 4 corners.

50103 is a new kit based on 51858 to reduce the sag in the rear on TL's. It uses dark blue Sport springs in the front and grey OE Sport springs in the rear.

I have the 50103 with 2 12" in the trunk and it is sitting about 1/4 of an inch lower than the front. If I take my system out, the drop is dead even. Either way, I love it.

I guess it should be noted that I have a TL, not a CL.

51858 seems to be less of a rake than Comptech which is probably a good thing for the CL.

Two thumbs up!

P.S. if you wanna see pics, right click, properties and then paste the *.jpg address in your browser.
