I have 1.25" of threads it can go lower in the front & 1.5" threads in the rear.

Slammed

 

Looks like you can get a nice drop out of the H&R's.

Ca$per, give me a week and I'll show you PSS9's on full drop. Hopefully it goes low enough without having to take the locking rings off lol.

 

I can go way lower.

checkmate, I still see gap. Are those 215/40/17 ?

 

I lowered my car with H&R on the rear about alittle more than half way and good lord, tire rubbed right thru the liners and exposed the metals everywhere.


Fronts, I have more than half threads to go with my fat tires tucked in.. i can't wait til i drop the 215/45..

should i go 205/40 or 215/40

 

You're cheating, it's easy to tuck 215/45

Trying to tuck 205/40/17s should be interesting, hopefully it can be done (on PSS9's).

 

Rubbing with H&R?

I have BBS R90's with BFG 205x45x17 tires & I have no rubbing.


joe r

 

Those drops are sick!
I am still deciding which ones to go with...Most likely will mimic Ryephile's set up...hopefully he will post in here...

 

pssssh 205/40 is huge....try tucking 205/50/15

 

You guessed correct I am tucking in the rear but the front just about 1 more inch and I would be.

 

i'm pretty sure i can put the car on the ground if i crank it down all the way.. i was tuckin stock 175/50/15 and it was very sick hahahahah at least i got no rubbin then!

 

Sweet ride man, thanks for posting up. Can you go lower with the front?


another nice one, but I would like to have the front in more if possible. I believe you have the Megans... How do they ride? and can you go lower up front with your setup?





I just like the Stance... this is what I need (with bigger wheels and tires though ) thanks Rally

 

I'm still torn between H&R or KW coilovers, I also want to go real low.

 

I think either choice will get you where you want to be. You just need to see which one offers a better price and better ride comfort.

 

This is as low as I could possibly get on the front and rear.

 

This is as lowest I could get on the front and rear.

 

Let me know how it goes.....with the small wheels and tires, they had already rubbed through the wheel liners and rubbed all the paint off the metal underneath Bigger wheels and tires may run into some issues.

 

Ok you win.

Damn I didn't know H&R's went that low, affordable option with a NICE drop. I think Eibach's drop about as much as the H&R's but no one runs those on here...

 

KW V1's

 

Yes I can go alot lower on the front.

Were it sits at now in my opinion it rides better than the factory sport suspension it had on it.

KW V2 for some track tweaking

 

Konky, do you have a pic of yours with the KW? I always had KW on my previous VW, and simply loved them, but H&R is also a great product.

 

how do these two match up in terms of ride comfort?
KW / H&R?

 

As far as ride comfort I would say they ae darn close.

I had KW coilovers on my following cars,

1995 Dodge neon V1's.
2001 Dodge neon V1's.
2003 Dodge neon SRT-4 V3's.
2005 Dodge neon SRT-4 V1's.

I was going to go the KW route with the Mini but I recieved a great deal on my H&R's & they are great.
