I would never run anything other than H&R's on my car. (unless of course I decided to go with coilovers)

Looks sweet! Just curious though, how do you get a floor jack under these things when that low? I barely got one under mine that has the Eibach Pro Kit! lol

if anyone here has these, please give me some feedback on how they run and handle on our cars.
1.75" ~ 2" is a pretty aggressive drop and don't recommend it without at least getting some CC plates and a bump-steer kit.

Seems to me I have heard less than stellar things of Drop Zone springs. I recommend you go with a spring sporting a better reputation.

Thanks. I have a hydraulic lift that i can use to lift the whole car up or i have a flat jack that gets just enough clearance to slide up under it when needed. I prefer to use the lift in most cases though lol.
