I have steeda sport springs on the car now, but i just got H&R sports springs in the mail. Im debating whether to just put the front H&R srpings in and leave in the rear steedas and give it more of a rake. Or just install the the H&Rs in all four corners. Let me know what you think.

This is how the car sits now with steeda sport springs.

Those look nice for Steeda springs. I don't think you'll get much lower with the H&Rs.

If you want a level look go with the race & take the rear top ISO out

If you want the front to be way down & have the rake look go with the sports.

H&R race for me all the way

if i put the H&Rs in all around and use stock isos up front and poly isos in the rear would that bring the back up just a little bit more than the front?

Send the H&R's back. Take out your front top spring isolators and your rear top & bottom spring isolators. It looks good, this combo will get you a 1/4" more front and 1/2" more rear which is perfect imho

Thanks man :beer:. All the factory iso's are still on all four corners.

I'm not sure about the handling differences between the Race springs and the Sport springs but I'm sure someone will chime in with an answer to that.

EDIT: Oh yeah, the car handles great. I noticed a big difference between the factory springs and the SS's. I think the Race springs would be a little better but not sure. I couldn't be happier with the SS's though.

On top of the springs I have H&R 1" hub centric spacers out back. For anyone running 1" spacers though, I recommend you get new beefier studs to replace the factory ones.
