Newly lowered G on H&R's

I love it man I think its sick. If this were my car and not my wifes I would have gone lower, but it still looks good to me. The first two are before and after.

Looks great! How does it look from the rear? Probably would look nicer with some spacers.

Also, how do you find the ride? Stiffer and harsh or not so bad?

it looks ok from the rear ,as far as spacers I don't wanna put any on cause I'm plannin' on new wheels soon 20x8.5 ft 20x10 Rr. It rides nice, not harsh AT ALL. It doesn't rock front to back as much during shifts or going from reverse to forward. It does however have a loose feel at high speed 80mph+ cornering, so sways are in order very soon! I'll try to get a couple rear pics on here.

Yes they are just springs. I have sport susp. stock, I am just running stock struts and shocks. Trying to keep $$$ to a minimum. I can say I did all the work myself and saved about $300 , so that was cool!

Those are great springs. I had those before my coilovers and the progressive spring helps so much for daily drivers.

Thanks! The reason I bought them is I saw you had 'em before your coilovers and they looked sick on your car!!! The car feels a little loose on high speed (80mph) corners. Will good sway bars cure that???

Mine felt a lot better high speed than with the stock springs. Sway bars will help that a lot more. It will also perform a lot better with better struts.

I have sport suspension.I'de have to say the same till you hit a decent bump then you can feel 'em tighten up, I think that is due to the progessive part of 'em, I really like how they feel.If you have H&R's I dunno what your waiting for ... put them on NOW!!
