I've used H&R springs on several of my cars and I think they're fantastic.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Thanks to my wife, I got some H&R springs for my car for Christmas. Put them on a couple of days ago and finally got around to washing the car and taking some pics.
I used the DIY that I think everyone uses. It was a pretty simple and straightforward job. Fronts were super easy. Putting the rears back in were quite a pain. That lower bolt is a little tricky.
Car feels great�very planted. And it is the perfect height for me. Not slammed, but no more 4x4. I love this car!

You know these little black air deflectors in front of each tires, I have lost 3 of 4 of them since the car is much lower as I have the same springs. Be mindful of front cement parking blocks as well as your front is now much lower. Enjoy the new handling capabilities, though!
Superb. I went to fit my H&R's but discovered I need new shocks. Currently saving for some Bilstein B6 and then I'll be lowering mine on H&R's too.
Can't wait, yours looks superb, health to enjoy!

Thanks for the comments everyone. I've been wanting to do this for a long time and it is definitely worth it.
As for the change in ride, I've had a chance to put about 30 miles on it so far. Feels good, definitely stiffer on long sweeping turns like off ramps, etc. But overall, feels good. And now I know what everyone is talking about when they say it gets rid of the "floaty" feeling on the freeway.
tgt40, even though it is only like an inch or inch and a quarter lower, I definitely notice it getting in and out. And it feels like I'm sitting on the ground now! Funny, cause when you think about it, it really isn't THAT much lower. But I'm loving it. Can't wait for it to settle a little more.

I lowered my Mini with H&Rs and it looked great, but it reduced the suspension travel to about 1/2". After that it would bottom out on the rubber bumpers and beat me to death. I'd love to lower my 996 but my previous experience has always stopped me.
Have you noticed a similar outcome with yours? Any "bottoming out" on rough roads or roadway expansion strips?
