Blast your lack of telepathic abilities!!!
I JUST ordered a new set of these 2 farking days ago!!!!! *fume*
So just to get the full effect, why are you getting rid of them? Was that you who switched to the Renntechs after getting some rubbing in the back with a full load?
What is the difference in feel and drop?

Yeah I switched to Renntechs. I would rub with 3 people in the back with my 19" wheels. When I put the Renntech springs in, the installer noticed that it was just rubbing on some plastic clips under there. He trimmed those. That would have solved the issue, but I had already purchased the Renntechs.
I haven't driving the car with the Renntech springs so I can't tell you about the difference yet.

good to hear you fixed the prob but my advice may have been too late???
i would be very curious to hear your impressions renntech vs H&R. you may the only person who would have had both on your car
i really like the control of the renntechs.
side note re rear springs- you can get 3 or 4 different levels of spring pads to shim out to the height you want.

I am picking up the car in a couple hours (Kleeman ECU!!!). Hopefully I'll have a feel for the Renntechs by the end of the weekend.

Thanks for the advice AWD. I told my mechanic what you told me and he immediately knew what I was talking about. If I had trimmed those things earlier, I would have resolved the rubbing issue.

The drop is significant BUT YOU MUST GET BENZ #4 rear spring shims or else the rear of the car will be too low. Even with the tallest shims, the rear is still ever so slightly lower than the front (measured by fenderwell gap).
H&R Sport Springs are nice. Significantly firmer than stock, but not too rough at all. I'm happy with mine for appearances and handling.
