Default H & R springs

Are they good? How do they compare vs the TeinS? & where is best place to buy them?

Search!

Anyways, they are great springs.. i'd rather have them over Tein S-Tech..

German or Japanese Engineering?

I went with the Germans on this one.

I got them. They "do not" ride like stock. Harsh over bumps. Maybe better with an aftermarket shock,tokico, fsport , etc. Car sure looks better. Trade off on looks over comfort I guess.

^^ it's not in my head.. it sure as hell wasn't as good as stock. the bumps were harsh.. but its possibly because of me cutting the bumpstops

Well the TEIN springs specifically ask you not to chop off the bump stops..do the H&R's say so as well?

Something may have been installed incorrectly. I've ridden in 3 cars with H&R springs (mine included) and they all rode smooth as butter. Do you have the sport package shocks?

^^ Quick question for you Javier, is your driver side lower than the other side? Its so annoying it makes me want to switch to coilovers. I've had these springs on the car since March, using the stock shocks..i love the ride its too soft and thats perfect for me, considering the roads in LA aren't the best
