Coverage and how to read this overview
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.

I'm trying to get an idea of what my car will look like with various aftermarket springs.
So any pics you guys have of cars lowered with springs would be appreciated.
Go to <a href="http://www.funcarsonline.com." target="_blank">www.funcarsonline.com.</a> and ask the same question. I can post pictures there. I have H&R springs and lots of pics.
sloddrivingmike: I posted on funcarsonline, most people say not to do JUST the springs, I would like to get you feedback. Coilovers are overkill for a daily driver.
I have judt installed H&R springs in my C4-S and would be happy to post images but cannot figgure out how tyo do this. If someone will enlighten me, I will post what I have.
Thanks,
DAB
Vinmar911,
I'm very happy with the H&R's on both the street and the track. For looks, I think it would be even better with larger wheels. Mine are 17 inch. The streets are very flat and smooth here in south Florida, so the ride is generally fine. There has been a lot of construction on I95 and so every now and then I hit a bump and you really feel it. Since I have the factory aero kit, I do have to be careful on driveways and coming out of parking lots, etc. I just go slow and as close to 45 degrees as possible. On the track, the springs become progressively firmer under increasing loads. The suspension is more than enough to handle the power, even after several upgrades in that area. The weak point of the car is the brakes, even with extra air ducts. On my wish list is turbo brakes, but then I would have to replace 2 sets of 17 inch wheels. But I digress. I hope I've answered your questions. Feel free to reply with any more specific questions.
Regards,
sloD
Thank you slodrivingmike: Your car looks good, I do not track mine, mostly interested in bringing the front end down. I was concerned that using the springs would not even out the ride height. I do have 18 inch rims already so sounds like that will help too.
Heres a couple of pic of my car with the H&R coilovers. Car has down lowered (and corner balanced) to below Euro spec but above Gt3 spec, by around 15mm, 125 front, 140 back, if memory serves. Any lower and the splitters would start causing a problem. The car was originally equiped with the stock suspension. I can honestly say that the ride quality is the equal or perhaps even a little better with the H&R setup. I love it.
