H&R street coilovers
 
Hello all,
Does anyone run these for street use and the occasional DE? My 106k mile car suspension is basically toast, so I'd like to upgrade a bit, but don't want a too harsh a ride for the street.

Anything else required with a moderate lowering of say an inch or so? No issues with camber at that ride height, correct?

Thanks

Lowering your car 1" may require an adjustable link for the rear toe (mine did..) and ended buying Rennline set.

Gilles, were you able to keep the stock sway bar drop links with a 1" lower ride height? I was thinking that adjustable drop links may also be needed??

I lowered my car around 20 mm using the M030 ROW springs and have the stock droplinks

Hello Tom,

Actually I used the OEM drop links for almost 8 years without any issues,

Yessterday I finally was able to reinstall the front suspension, as the coilovers arrived from KW (being rebuild) and I installed the Tarrett links as well, tonight I will preload the suspension to torque the LCA's, control arms, links etc,.

Hopefully my back will allow me to start on the rear suspension as well.. LOL
