I'm going to be moving on to springs as well soon and have the same dilemma. Since I don't plan to hit the track with my current MCS I thought about either H-sport or H & R. Anyone have pics of their Copp with these springs on any personal info on these springs.

I have my street setup and then at the track i play with it until i get a good setting. I dont mess with the hight on the track because that also changes your alignment.
Good Day

Here is mine with H&R Coilovers

Hey ESM, if you want to post a shot of your car let me know - I can drive over and snap a few shots, then either you or I can lob 'em up for people.

Your car is crazy low What width of tire do you have on there... like 335s now?

Just had the Outmotoring crew put H-sport springs on my S. It rides a little harsher than I would have liked but it looks awesome! Aaron did a great job.
