H&R FTL

The super sport springs have been on back order for 2 months now and H&R isn't expecting anything until August 15th.

Are there any other springs that offer an aggressive drop without a 3 - 4 month waiting period?

A friend of mine recommended a local shop that he's been using for years. I've never been there but he swears by it and tbh my only concern when it comes to picking a shop is being able to pull out of their garage without scrapping my lip and chassis . . & reasonable pricing.

I messaged one buyer (racingimports) and was told that their sold out but shipments are coming in on August 1st, which in actuality means they're coming in August 15th.
