Wonder if they fit r56. Anyone know? I see product numbers are different according to tirerack.com between r55 and r56. Wonder if the suspension is different between the two cars or are the spring rates / valving different between the two because of the weight difference? $530 is still cheap for a coilover though.

Called H&R today (888-827-8881) and it turns out that the coilover set for the r56 (product #50453) and the r55 (product #50457) are identical- spring rates/ valving/ mounts... I was told they just do that for packaging and inventory purposes or whatever. So I went ahead and ordered my set today. KILLER DEAL!!! I'll keep you guys posted if any funnny/ shady stuff comes up.
Actually you paid the same price that most vendors charge for the H&R Sport Springs. The original ad quoted in this thread was for H&R Street Performance Coilovers.

No answer to hardingsan's question? I would like to know if anyone ever got those.
