H&R Sport Springs

I'm lookin for someone who has them installed with stock wheels (feel free to post pics even if you don't)

I'm debating on gettin em this weekend but I'd like to see what they look like to get an idea first.

Thanks guys!

Do you H&R guys have any issues with scraping the bottom of the bumper on driveways and steep inclines? I had my Z lowered on Hotchkis suspension it was only a .75 drop but I seemed to scrape everywhere. I guess I did have a body kit also, that didnt help. I dont plan on kitting the TL, just suspension.

firstacuratl nice stuff! That's a good drop. I was originally gunning for Tein SS but I think the H&R's look a tad better. I seem to notice many models sag with tein's.

H&R springs are pretty moderate in terms of drop, but yes, you can scrape in the right circumstances.

Some inclines, it doesn't matter what you're running. Mostly just use common sense and watch for curbs where you park.

I need another 1/4" or so.



Wish I had $$ for Koni's -

I have the exact set up you are asking to see. Stock wheels, Pirelli PZero Nero 235/45/17 tires and H&R Sport springs. Looks great, rides great, no rubbing and have to be careful pulling in/out of steep driveways. Otherwise no problems. Now let me go read about how to post pics on this site so you can see it.

Hey, I love the stance Sixpack! Sorry to revive an old thread, but I am really interested in the H&R sports, with the addition of the Koni Yellows. Great to finally find some good picks with the stock wheels. (as I plan to keep mine)
