Too low?

Hey guys, I'm on H&R but it seems to sit alot lower in the rear. I'm not sure I like it. Thoughts?

Yes unfortunately this is a issue most users have seen.

Not sure what can fix it though

BTW what wheels and specs?, they look great

That's just how those fit on the sedan. I have complained about the stance H&R gives since inception. There is an adjustable spring that just hit the market, but otherwise we have very few options in the US.

You could have a spring spacer made, but otherwise, it is what it is.

Ya, might wait until spring and try the new H&R adjustable ones. It definitely looks a bit 'off' as is. Don't like the negative rake look.

Thanks, the wheels are Velos Designwerks S1s, brushed clear with gloss black inner/windows.
They are all 19" x 8.5 +40. Tires are the Pirelli OEM 19s. Center caps don't fit so going to work on that this weekend.

Ya I've seen/heard nothing but the same from sedan owners. I feel like you're even lower in the rear than anyone else though. Too many dead hookers in the trunk?

Unfortunately I agree.... need a better, reasonable cost solution!
