I currently have KW V'1 with roughly 75 miles on them and I'm thinking about selling them to go with a spring/shock combo as they don't go low enough for me (tire to spring clearance on the front). What spring/combo is ideal for daily driving? Recommendations?

Thanks!

H&R springs and OEM shocks worked fine for me. No issues.

^ hows the ride quality?

I also have H&R springs on OEM (original) shocks. Have been running this way for about 30K miles. I was thinking the shocks had worn out due to harsh ride and had planned to replace them with Bilsteins in the late spring/summer time frame. Buuuut, after swapping out my wheels/tires set I believe the harshness was due to the Goodyear tires I run during the summer.

The Goodyear asymetricals are ok tires but the sidewalls are weakened due to me putting them on the 8.5/9.5 inch width mandrus wheels. So they are slightly streched. Will replace them with Michelin PS in the summer and increase the size to 235/265.

The ride is good (IMO) with the H&R springs and sways (set to firmer setting).

The ride is just a tad bit stiffer then stock, but still very comfortable. PM'd you back as well.

How low do the H&R's tend to drop the car?

BTW, thanks for all the feedbacks!

H&R Springs (1.4"F 1.3"R) you can adjust the rear via the pads #1-4. im planing ot go with pad #4 on the rear to have a balanced look with the front.
still dont know if i want to use stock sturts/shocks or go Koni! ugh
