Lowering F15 - H&R
Hey guys, new to posting and searching on this site so please bare with me. I am looking at lowering my F15 35d with third row seating and self leveling suspension. I saw online the following sets but can't understand which one is better. Any help would be appreciated. Why would anyone go with the two springs and links if there is a four spring option?

You don't have traditional springs in the back (airbags/air springs instead), therefore you'd need front springs + rear end links. So, the first link you posted. H&R is not known to be the most comfortable setup, so hopefully you're not planning to go too low or you may end up disappointed. |

I agree with Jiggz, stay away from H&R VTF if you want comfort and go low...
But if you go with H&R VTF, I recommend also getting a set of Koni Reds. Use Google to search the forum, often works better IMO. Also, you can reach out to r33_RGSport and see what deal he might be able to get you on the lowering kit. Then once you are lowered, he can help you out with right size spacers... |

my 2 cents, and also as stated above
your rears are air bags, so no springs - hence links to tell the system to sit "lower" I installed Eibach springs on the front, and adjusted the rear via a snap on tool. For what its worth, depending on how low you want to do, i would recommend getting a set of coilovers/aftgermarket shocks, if you want to go lower than 15mm. Even my Eibachs are only 12 - 15mm lower than stock, and the ride in comfort mode is very bouncy. Sport mode is good, but can be abit too harsh for Sydney roads.

I initially installed h&r springs but upgraded to silvers coil overs. I installed the fronts and left the rear on airbags. Definitely worth the extra 4-500 dollars to me. It rides really good and can go low. Bc racing coilovers is about the same price and are good quality as well
