Cup Kit worth it???
I am considering getting the H&R cup kit for $600 or whatever the price is ... for the 2.0/1.4 drop with the springs and shocks... is this worth it or should I just get H&R springs with adjustable shocks.
I am consernded with maintaining ride quality as well as appearence.
thanks

I had installed a set of Cup kit on my car for a couple of months, the drop is perfect (but I ended up putting back the AMG shocks on). IMO, it only looks perfect if you've big wheels to go with it. If you're not going to change into bigger wheels, the regular H&R springs are good enough.

worth it
i think it's worth it. i paid a little more because they just came out but that is the only complaint i have on them.. the ride isnt as bad as many others say. i find it just nice.. but thats my opinion

I got a cup kit installed for about 4 months now.. i love the ride.... its a little rougher but youll notice a BIG difference when cornering and when taking a bump on the road... the car just bounces one maybe two times .. it is really stable.... i got the cup kit from autoclass at $589!! great deal.... you will not regret it..

like mine too. ride is firmer, but not harsh. makes the car look like it is supposed to. it closes up the gap nicely.
Are you still runnin your C7 rims?? Will I have a rubbing problems? and how often do you scrape on average curbs and streets?
