Sport springs*** sorry about that


As the title says, I'm just trying to get a feel for what the setup will look like. Im happy with how my car is sitting right now, but would be a little happier if it sat just a tad bit lower. Seems like they might do the trick according to what I've heard, but I want to see for myself. Please post if you're running this setup. Thanks !

Interesting . So did you have the sport suspension on your car already or did you also install that when you had the springs installed. hard to really tell, but it's just my assumption that your car isn't a sport right? (im just judging off of the chrome window trim)

From what I can see I'm not quite sure the springs will do much for me. I really wish I was wrong tho. Thanks for posting. I really appreciate it

My car is not a sport.

I bought the H&R's and the Sport Springs that they were on as well. If it's any help, I had just sport springs on non-sport shocks before I did this upgrade. The difference from sport springs to h&r was noticeable. It is hard to tell I know. I had the h&r's with the sport shocks on 20's first and there was someee wheel gap. It was a comfortable look. My picture's that I've posted are with 19's.

I think if you're running 20's on sport springs, its a very nice drop and not worth going to H&R's unless you have an itch you wanna scratch.

The difference will really only be seen in person, you get a nicer tuck in the rear, and the fronts come down quite a bit too.

If you're looking for a just a little bit more, then do it. You will notice it, and your car will look "dropped".

Heres mine on stock sport shocks with HR sport springs with 20"
Rides better than sport suspension and the stance in perfect in my opinion.
