I am riding on H&R springs. They said it would be approx 1.4in in front and 1.3in in rear, but it ended up being a 2in drop all around and I love it.

When we installed the H&R springs we trimmed ~15mm off.

i did cut the bumpstops, when i saw the online video install they cut them and when i got the springs there was also a paper in the box they told me to cut them....i got the springs directly from Road Magnet.com, i think their still running a special so get them soon if your really intrested, i paid $220 shipped but their normally $300 with shipping. i think it was some type of xmas promo but they still have them on sale.

Was the springs the only thing you changed?? ( other than cutting the bump stops) I have the F-Sport rims and I am just a little worried about losing the ride quality.

I really am happy with my H&Rs. They said it would be about a 1.4in drop in the fron and 1.3 in the rear. They ended up being 2inches all around, but I do have about 200lbs in the trunk (a couple dead hookers) so it would have been about 1.8 - 1.9 in the rear without.

H.ard A.s a M.other***********... I know this might seem crazy but I have a feeling that song has a lot of subliminal meaning to it in regards to Freemasonry.
