I知 debating on going with EMD or H&R lowering Springs. Anyone have any feedback on either of these two brands?

I have had H&R on a variety of different cars and have no complaints. Can't go wrong with German craftsmanship!

Thanks for your feedback! How was the ride quality compared to stock?

The ride be will be slightly stiffer and you will notice more imperfections in the road, but on the same note you might also feel the handling has improved. Remember when changing the springs alone, it will cause your stock struts to wear a lot quicker as they are not set up for the aftermarket spring rates and the new ride height.

IMO, the "harsher" ride quality makes me feel like I'm in a sports car lol, but that's just me!

Haha! How much quicker do struts wear with 0.8 drop?

I just did the H&R springs. I am now on 20's also with a small sidewall so I do feel the road, but I was also going for that. I am happy with the ride and given they are progressive springs the day to day only changed a small bit but i notice on cornering.

How much more harsh is the ride? I知 good with a tighter suspension but I also don稚 want to feel like I知 in a go-cart!

That's what I wanted to know too but nobody could give me an answer. I'm holding off because of this and I'm counting on keeping the car for a while. I'm sure for people who flip these cars after 20000 miles it's not a factor, it's the next owner's problem.
