I'm putting H&Rs on my awd on wednesday and will let you know how they ride and if I experience any vibrations.. but my best bet would be f sport springs since they are a very minimal drop

I just installed my F-Sports springs on my 06 AWD, and actually I don't experience any vibrations. If you are looking for a small drop you could go with these. I'm pleased with it,

Here's my link, Check it out.

thanks, can you also post pics of the awd with H&R, i wanted to get the eibach springs, but i noticed they arent made for awd, where i hear the H&R setup is made for awd?

Thanks

^ my car is currently in the shop getting the H&Rs on and I will post up some pics tomorrow night. Technically Eibach do not make an awd set of springs however I know many members have run them on their awds.

Thanks, just curious, what yr is your awd?
are you doing the shocks also? where did you buy your h&r from?

I have a 2007. Im going to ride on my oem shocks for a while or until I notice any problems and then will eventually go with the f sport shocks. Ive heard that this is a good combo. Also I bought my springs through a local shop for $250 shipped. I would check the vendors on this site or even google shopping/ebay

i posted this 2-3 times already but doesn't hurt to do it again

the vibration issue is a hit and miss....u can get it with any setup (springs, coils, diff brands, etc.)
it really depends on luck

after thorough research i found it happens randomly...even with the exact same set of springs, 1 person may have it while other person may not

personally mine is dropped on h&r bc i just rli wanted to kill the wheel gap but not slam it cuz i drive it daily
i sometimes i get vibration when idle @ red light with brake pressed....but honestly, i had this happen randomly even BEFORE i lowered...so i conclude it's a matter of car and drivetrain (awd)

with that being said, from MY research these are the 2is awd compatible springs: h&r, tanabe nf210, road magnet, tein stech, fsport........possibly others but didn't look into them

tanabe quite soft and drop is weird so i didn't go with it
stech too much front but not enough rear drop...more aggressive this way but i wanted more even...it's actually cheapest out of all
road magnet...2 inch drop all around...i think too unsafe for "springs" as well my local retailer said they are not reliable
fsport....drop too little won't make difference for awd
so i went with h&r..decent and even drop, and most awd owners seem to have it

anyways here's my before n after:

its definitely a hit or miss, some may experience more vibrations than others, while others don't really feel it at all. It also all depends on how low you are. The lower the more vibrations there will be

I can say it's a hit or miss, you either have it or don't
and the vibration level does not depend on how low your car is
I was on S-tech springs and the vibration was kinda worse than Megan coils I have now
get coils and adjust carefully with different settings
the wobble and vibration will depend on the adjustment you made on the coils

i heard that the vibrations might cause axles to pop out? has anyone lowered a car with coils and got no vibrations? or has anyone lowered with springs got no vibrations? what im getting from all this reasearch is, dont matter how you lower your car, springs or coils, u gonna get the vibrations, correct?
thanks
