Stock Spring Pad Sizes - A Survey
Hey Guys,
Finally threw in my H&R Super Sports with 5-dot (21mm) pads front, 2-dot (17mm) pads rear. The result was a net 2.25 inch drop (bigger drop than I calculated).
My stock pads were 2-dots all the way around.
I know we've discussed how we've had different stock pad sizes. Let's post them all up here to gather some data on this.
Attached are some pics post-install.

do you have a 1½ finger gap front and 2 finger rear?
If yes, drop is like euro AMG spring height.
if you have 2 finger gap up front then your car was raised a bit from euro stance.
H&R's Super sport springs these drops the car more than standard H&R's?
