nice!! i was wondering what size are your wheels.
the wheel gap is completely gone which looks a lot better than the stock ones.

 

How is the ride with stock shocks on H&R?

 

09 is250 awd

h&r springs, stock shocks

1.4f, 1.3r

this is right after installation and took it for a quick spin down the street

 

^ makes a HUGEE difference on AWD's lol

 

yea haha, the AWD is especially high....i went from a over 4 finger wheel gap to less than 2...

 

What is the longevity of the shocks after putting lowering springs on?

I would think the extra tension on the shocks would deteriorate them quickly.

Lowering springs will give you that bouncy ride too!

 

^no bouncy ride here!

And I haven't been lowered for too long (8 months), but I asked around before I lowered my car - and I didn't run into anyone blowing their shocks super early.

 

Will be ordered them most likely tonight! Can't wait to get them I absolutely hate wheel gap lol

 

I'm driving very careful now...slow over bumps and avoiding potholes more....

Can't wait to change shoes...will make me an even safer driver/...

 

have mine for a year and a half now, rides good, looks good, stock shocks are still in good shape, you won't regret it

 

Are any of you awd guys experiencing vibrations from these springs? Ive heard a lot about it due to the bcr coils but not a whole lot about the h&r's so I think I may be going with these.

Anyone know what the dealers quote for installation? Also, anyone know of any good install shops near Portland, OR that are cheaper than the dealership?

Thanks in advance.

 

What size are your rims? Because I like your set up with the H&R springs!

 

Those are 19s, I believe its 38 offset for the front and 32 offset for the back (or vice versa).

 

definitely more vibration....but i got them installed same time as my oil change which i did a seafoam before hand, so once i got new tank of gas after and after today's alignment, ride's a lot smoother and vibration @ idle eased...

 

Where did you have these springs installed? I'm from the Monterey County Area and I'll drive anywhere for an $80.00 installation fee...
