I use H-Sports and they are more comfy than stock. :smile:

Less stiff? Really??? How much do they lower the car?

I have the m7 springs and I am very happy.

Get M7 or KW to improve the comfort. These lower about 1.2-1.3"

Get H-Sport to improve handling. (though they're still more comfy than stock) The H-Sport's lower about 3/4". Drop for any spring set depends on overall weight of your MINI and build date.

Hope that helps,
Ryan

Thanks Ryan,

You probably won't want to help me anymore when you see the wheels I picked:lol: They bear a striking resemblance to yours. :razz: Sorry dude....
At least we don't live next door to each other lol

i have Eibachs, they lower the car 1-1/4". I'm really happy with the ride, don't forget the control arms. good luck.
