Thanks for pointing those out. They're flagged as new, so I doubt anyone has experience with them yet. Likely they were released to line up with SEMA.
I'm pretty excited about these. Was looking at KW's HAS, but they're not available in NA. I might give these a try when spring rolls around.

The H&R kit you are looking for is a new kit and is still about 6-weeks out from Germany.
It is supposed to work with the auto suspension system that we have in the C43. I have preordered a set

Nice! Looking forward to seeing how this kit works out. Should be able to solve that negative rake issue with the current spring setup, especially on the sedan.

Question for everyone.
The VTF springs for the Coupe are part number 23002-6 and they show front lowering from 1.2 - 1.8, and rear lowering from 1.4 - 2.0. My question is, is this even possible? Looking at those cars lowered on H&R Sport Springs (1.2 inches), after spacers, wouldn't I be rubbing like crazy if I was to go down to 1.8 or 2.0? Also,..to ensure the car sits flush, I need to now drop the front to 1.4.
The sedan springs (23002-5) have front lowering from 1.2 - 1.8 and rear lowering from 1.0 - 1.6. I guess I'm trying to understand why the coupe springs would be that much different from the sedan in the rear. Maybe this is to fix the reverse rake that the Sedan owners are complaining about with the Springs
I'm puzzled...and looking for some quick answers because the springs are currently on sale. I may not pull the trigger until I get some answers...would be best to have someone else be the guinea pig, but I'm willing to do so if I can get some solid answers.
Thoughts?

I'm really not sure but I'm happy about the sedan drops as the front definitely needs more than the back. The regular H&Rs on my sedan gave me a terrible
negative rake and I hate that look so took them off. Looking for this kit in the Spring!
