hello, guys pls help, i installed a H&R spring on my S last week, but the height still looks high to me, the rear look perfect, but the front still have 3 fingers gap between the fender and wheels, so basiclly the front looks very high and the rear looks very low. i had a 17" wheels, and want to know does any one who have this spring installed and would like to know does it need to take longer to wait the car drop. i'm so confuse.

 

Not trying to offend you, but are you sure you put the front ones in the front and the rears in the rear? It can be easy to make this mistake if you're not careful.

I have H&R's on stock shocks with 18's and here's how mine looks. BTW, I don't think I ever had a 3 finger gap in the front after they were installed. And I'd say it took about 2 weeks for them to completely settle.

Hope that helps.

 

whats your guys opinion on how long stock shocks will last with lowering springs? of course depends on driving. lets just highway, no track days?

[QUOTE=importkid,Jan 5 2007, 09:28 PM] Totally beautiful.

 

I have H&R's on my 03 with stock rim's and it's low..Like rajun asian, make sure they were installed properly..

 

Sounds like the fronts are in the rear and rears are up front

 

Yes I know, I know. Those H&R coilovers in the "for sale" section are quite tempting. But I don't have the $800 to blow right now.

 

I installed my springs over the stock shocks when I had about 1500 miles on the car. I've never done a track day and now have almost 12,000miles and the shocks seem to still be doing their job. But then again the H&R's don't even drop the car a whole inch so the shocks should be OK for quite a while I'm assuming. But you know what they say when one assumes things....
