I love my H&Rs, I know they're different for Foxes but they really did a perfect job with their springs for SN95s. From what i can tell the quality is amazing too, they were actually thicker than my Steedas...

I've got the FRPP C springs and so does primetime5.0. They're great springs and primetime would agree with me if he was on, great qualityand theygive a good drop.

You just want to lower the car?Cut your springs! If you want handling also, look at the spring ratesand make your own decision! I have the H&R race springs, but I take mine on the road course a few times a year so I sacraficed a little comfort for better handeling!
