Anyone here lowered with H&R Springs?

[Freshness]

Hey guys, could only find information for Eibach Springs, but it appears they give a reverse rake. I’m hoping there’s someone who has installed H&R’s before and would be willing to share their experience.

According to the website, the drop is a bit lower than what Eibach has for the front which would definitely get rid of the reverse rake, while maintaining the same rear drop.

Any pics would be greatly appreciated!

Hmm...a quick advanced search for H&R springs found several threads.

I was only able to locate one thread in which there were no responses dated 6 months ago.

I haven't seen any pics yet either. I decided to start with the least aggressive spring only drop to see how the ride was. In my opinion, the ride changed very little with the Eibach setup, so I was hesitant to move on to a more aggressive drop until there were more people installing and commenting on the ride.

Did you guys get an alignment after the Eibach drop? Curious what the camber in the rear ended up at.

Also interested in learning more. The H&R pics are from a LR. Hoping to get pics for a MYP. Here are the springs. There does not appear to be different variants for LR vs. P.

Probably aren't variants for LR/P, only difference would be the amount of drop being less with the P considering it's already lower than the LR.

What would I be looking at then for drop on an MYP? Like 1.1 front and 0.8 back, right?

Yeah using Eibachs numbers, it looks like 1.2” and 0.7” rear on the performance. Both LR/P will have the same end drop, the performance just has lower springs from the factory.

Based off the stock photo form H&R (assuming it’s not photoshopped) the drop seems to have a proper rake unlike the Eibach.

Will def be ordering the H&R springs.

I found a reddit of a MYP with the H&Rs.

Thanks for sharing!

Guys, I ended up with an LR and not a Performance but the drop should be identical.

H&R springs were ordered, looking forward to sharing.

Also, still waiting for you share the several threads of information.

I ordered the H&R springs but need to get the actual MYP delivered. That’s a whole separate waiting game.

One shop sent me these pics of the H&R and it might be a bit low for me.

Looks good for my tastes. I’ll need the rear camber arms for sure.

Have cancelled 2 orders. Back ordered and H&R does not have an ETA on shipping.
