Default PIC REQUEST: H&R RACE Springs on 18s or Roush Stage 3 Kit

Hi everybody, trying to figure out what springs to get. I have searched and found lots of pics but I am looking in particular for somebody with H&R Race springs on 18s and/or the Roush Stage 3 lowering kit.

Thanks to those that post!!

I think H&Rs race springs are the same drop as sportlines? Got pics in my album if so...

bout to go clean her up and get some. just so you know, the H&R races are somewhat killer on the street. not that you can't use them on a DD but they are probably the stiffest springs you can put on an S197...

Handling is GREAT but your drag race times will suffer.

I still have a bit of camber to adjust and will with my steeda plates. not sure if they will give me enough with the extreme drop of the HR's.

hmmmm "killer on the street" that really says a lot coming from you after having those steeda comps on there.

Maybe I'll have to reconsider....I do drive this thing everyday.

is it the surface you were on, or is the rear lower than the front.

I think you are right. The Supersports are a 2 inch drop. THe HR Race are supposed to be about the same drop as a Eibach pro kit just a **** ton stiffer.

i have h&r race springs. they are the same drop as the eibach pro kit or frpp springs but they are stiffer. the specs say lowers 1.4" rear and 1.5" front. the drop looks proportional.

here are some pics. i can get some straight on side shots tom.
