How do H&R RACE springs ride on Koni yellows???

WhiteTornado · 03-13-2011, 03:12 PM

I'm looking to drop my car on my stock 162's and I want a low aggressive look. I see the h&r race provide an aggressive stance but a lot of people say they are harsh and bounce a lot. But how are they with a set of aftermarket shocks??

Also is anyone running eibach sportlines? They say they drop in the front 2 inches and the rear an inch or so. How do the two compare in stance/ride quality?? I also am looking into smoother ride quality.

i have sportlines, i got one inch all around over stock sport, so i still have an inch wheel well gap. although there are positive things about the sportlines over other springs i would not buy them again, if i were to do it over i would get the sport cup kit that has the race springs.

oh yeah thats right! the h&r cup kits have sport and touring

im really liking the drop of the h&r race spring and dont want to keep my oem shocks in.

but i was thinking cant i just buy a set of oem top hats from somewhere and put it on the cup kits instead of doing all that bs with a spring compressor?? it would be like a coilover swap.
