I saw an H&R cup kit and it caught my interest, I am saving and plan to buy it soon. For those of you that have it let me know what you think.

Default Difference

Cupkit is a separate spring and shocks combination with a fixed ride height.

H&amp;R Coilovers are a set, with a adjustable height configuration.

Default I have been doing a hard core search and it looks like people are having problems

with these kits... Maybe I will look else where. There seems to be rubbing issues big time even with 16' stock sport wheels. I think I will look into getting something else instead
