H-techs are a very mild drop, less than rsr downs and tein s-techs.

Wow.. lowering springs on a sub 40k car, who'd have thought!

Curious to know the long term effects, if any, on an active suspension setup. Whenever I went with the spring route, I've usually matched them with shocks so there aren't any bottoming out scenarios.

Is the ride much more stiff this way?

I just lowered my car this weekend too on the rsr super down springs. I added 20mm spacers to fill out the wheel well a little bit until i get a better set of wheels. Car drives great with no rubbing. The ride is def stiffer with these springs compared to stock. Its a good temp solution until more companies come out with proper coilovers...

Awesome drop! Great value and quality for what RS-R has to offer with these Super Down Springs.
IMHO the FSport wheels look awkward with rear spacers.

RSR makes what I consider to be the best suspension system around..
