Please post CLS 6-speed pics with H&R springs 50103

If anybody with a CLS 6 speed has installed H&R springs (part 50103), can you please post some pics? I am trying to decide if this is the desired drop for my car.

Also, did you need a camber kit?

I know this has been discussed, rediscussed, and then discussed some more, but I could never find a clear answer to this.

Thanks

Not sure many people will have this spring yet.

If you compare it, the rear will be slightly lower than Comptech and slightly higher than H&R 51858 (ie. the original H&R sport for the accord).

You will have a slight rake but not as much as comptech.

I'm planning on the 50103 also (to replace rusty Comptechs) and would love to see a picture too.

I don't like how the Accord springs 51858 seem to make the rear look saggy. The 50103 should give a slight rake (on the CL) which I like.

I don't have a 6 speed, but this is what mine looks like on the older H&R's....





Hope this helps. It's a nice drop. I didn't need a camber kit.

RaviNJCLs,

Are those the H&R Sports? Or the OE Sports?

Don't have any pics of mine, but it is a nice drop, I had the HR sports installed, looks pretty even on my car, maybe a few millimeters higher in the rear. Be warned, it is low, I thought it was rubbing, going to hurt performance low but it is not, anything lower would be crazy though. Man does it handle nice now, body roll is almost non-existant.....you will feel the buimps a little more..........you DEFINATELY will need the camber kits, front and rear.

Maybe you don't. Camber kits are car specific, some cars need them, some do. I, for one, don't need one. You need to get an alignment BEFORE purchasing a camber kit... Then you will know.

Yeh. Usually wait a couple days to do an alignment. I took my wheels off for the winter and they have been on for about 10 months and one seemed to be slightly worn. And that tire is mounted on a bent rim. If you have a lot of extra weight from a stereo, it may be a bit more important to get one.
