Zagger is Lower!

Just installed my H&R Springs yesterday. Love the new look. The pics are just after a wash, and not dry. Better ones later!

Nice, looks good.

Mines AB/AB. Haven't done anything to the suspension yet, still deciding between the JCW kit or aftermarket coilovers w/rsb. It's good to get an idea at to what it'll look like.

Thanks for the replies! I will post some more pics tomorrow.
I have to say that I really think it rides alot better than it did stock. Who would have thought, right?

Hey Masterd,
Did you just install springs or the coilover package? Do you know what the specs are on the springs? spring rate, drop, model, etc? I'm sure it stiffins it up for cornering ability, but does the ride quality suffer a lot, as far as comfort for everyday driving? Thanks man, ur car loooks great!

Braden

They are the H&R springs, and the approx. drop is 1.5. The ride is actually nicer than the sport suspension springs that I had initially. The ride is awesome, and I live in Salt Lake City Utah where are roads aren't all that great. Thanks for the compliments!!

Looks great masterd78!

So on speed bumps, potholes and such...any scraping or such?

Looks really good. I think I'm gonna have to drop Winston. He just looks so gooffy with the 2" wheel well gap.

I know that was the first thing I thought of when i got Zagger. Ya know the rear still has some gap, not a ton, but it's there. I had an 02 Cougar that I had slammed so I am kind of used to the tucked look. In fact here are 2 pics of it just for gap comparison, and a trip down memory lane. By the way Zagger is WAAAYYYYY more fun to drive!
