Default Got Wheels and Springs!

Well, I got my wheels and springs and the car handles awesome. I love the way the wheels look on the car. It handles awesome with the H&R springs. The only thing is that it didn't lower the car hardly at all. I had sport package and it only went down like half an inch. I am looking into it to see if I got the right ones or not. I will keep you guys posted.

Default Which springs did you get? H&R Sport ? H&R OE Sport ?

According to H&R their Sport springs should lower the car 1.7" in the front and 1.6" in the rear. Perhaps these drop figures are based off of the non-sport stock suspension.

I know that H&R makes OE Sport springs that are designed to work with the stock shocks. Those springs usually offer a small drop. The H&R site does not list OE Sport springs available for our cars. Maybe the site is not updated.

I would be interested to see if you have the H&R Sport springs. One because of the drop vs. stock sport suspension issue and two because I have always thought that it is not a good move to run a spring like the H&R Sport with the stock shocks. Keep us posted.

They do not have a set of oe sports for the 2002. The only thing they offer is the cup kit and the sport springs. I got sport and the drop is less than half an inch for factory sport. I am probably going to swap this out for cup kit. Will keep you guys posted

If you just put them on, give them some time to settle. They may end up being fine.
