Hi Guys,

Looking to go with H&R lowering springs, any drastic changes in ride quality?

I dont have the p30 option so as long as the ride stays similar what it is now i would want to see it little but lowered.

Thanks!

Ride quality is the same as stock, Handling as improved slightly.
In terms of looks, the car looks nice and planted.

I love the look of my H&R drop, and I find the car handling has improved. The ride is a little stiffer than stock, but nothing drastic.

You guys are the best!! Thanks for the feedback.
I just picked up a set based on this. Cant wait to get them on.

Next is possibly SS brake lines? anyone go with this?

A few members have SS brake lines.

Ty for the info.

_AMG_

No problem.

Pretty crappy ride quality if you ask me but the stock ride wasn't all that good to begin with.

Roswell

Thanks AMG for the infos on the alignment... I have yet to do mine since my dealership machine is not working yet (they are on renovation).

As I can see, the H&R drop is very minimal therefore the before & after alignment are very similar specs.

_AMG_

No problem Roswell.
The car was puling very slightly to the right before alignment but nothing major. Just wanted to get the alignment to be on the safe side.

WOW. Absolutely loving those wheels!!

...drop doesn't look like much at all though?

_AMG_

Thank you!

The springs have settled in a little bit more since I took those pics.

the ride isn't good but the ride on a stock car isn't good. the change really isn't that much.

edit: the drop isn't much H&R states .75" all around.

_AMG_

Jeff, your pics always come out awesome!!

This looks like my first real mod for this car.
