Suspension Question
Hey Everyone,
Sometime last year I replaced my stock springs with H&R. I'm finding that the rear is too low for my liking. Would it be possible to replace the rear H&R springs to stock? Would I have any major handling issues? I've attached a photo of my car with the H&Rs.

Hey Ackime,
Another option you may have would be to swap the rear spring pads to thicker pads. In turn, it creates more clearance. I had the issue of rubbing when I had coilovers on the c32 and having the #4 pad in the rear helped.

Ideally, you want the spring rates matched as a set. Even if looks and handling aren't your top concerns, having them mis-matched could make for some scary situations during an emergency.
