Self Leveling Suspension...

I'm trying to figure out if I can install H&R springs.

I know you need self-leveling suspension. I have an MSport with 3rd row seating so I know there is self-leveling suspension in the rear but I'm guessing it's just that? Not in the front?

Does anyone know the convoluted suspension setups for these bad boys?

Thanks in advance...

Ryan

Ryan, H&R have the kit for your car.
The other option is AC Schnitzer.
Let me know if you want to get a hold of either one.

Thanks for the response... another quick question.

I have coilovers on my F10; so i'm familiar with how those elevated the driving experience. I've never had springs; any idea how these springs affect the ride? Slightly stiffer I assume?

@rmastale, you can't compare spring ride to coilover.
Spring ride usually is a little bouncy due to the unmatched shock valving to the spring rate.
While coilover, the shock is valved for the spring rate.
In our F15 case, the RFT makes spring ride quality worse.
On my F10 with KW, it is day and night. Even better than stock suspension where it oscillate so much.
