07 Type S officially dropped with H&R Sport

Great drop IMO, almost factory ride, on stock TypeS shocks. Just installed, maybe will settle just a little. Enjoy! Comments always welcome.

looks good to me. how low is the drop, a little over 1"?

i'm lowering my type-s this weekend with eibachs.

lemme know how it rides with the type-s shocks.

thanks for sharing.

Rides very well, almost factory, maybe just a little bit softer than stock.
Spec is 1.4f/1.3r
The reason I didn't go with eibach is I heard there are some sagging issues because of the even drop, so a little more drop in the front is desirable. Thanks guys.

thanks for the input.

i got a killer deal on the eibachs, so i couldn't pass it up. hopefully mine turns out like yours tho.

hmmm its a subtle drop thats for sure, i think it would look better lower there is still a little too much gappage for my taste.

The rear does sit a little higher than I expected, maybe it will settle a little. I didn't want too much of a drop, I was going for the looks of some stock C and E class cars as well as the M that had really nice looks with small wheelgaps when stock. Also, didn't want to kill my shocks too quick. in the future koni will give me a little more drop when the time comes.

cool deal. yea maybe it will set a lil in the rear... front looks pretty good but rear is a lil higher. overall u have a nice car .... its wierd cuz i think acura sits so much higher than all the other "entry luxury cars" when i see a bmw 335ci it already looks lowered in my opinion the acura is an offroad machine stock lol... i never really noticed how tall they were until i lowered mine with the coilovers like 2.5"

no, not too bumpy, stock typeS is IMO already pretty stiff, this does not add to it.

Cali, it looks good. Consider some tints! And join our Type S Social Group here-if you already haven't.
