H&R Sport Springs Before & After Install

Rear still sits extremely high? Will it settle? I have around 5 miles on them as of now. Front look great. Easy install for the most part. They ride well. Not harsh, a little bouncy but not bad. Installed with Numbers Up. Part Number: 50735.2 Springs Color: BLACK/BLUE

Before


After






Front


Rear

B&g has a perfect rear lowering, but the spring rates are much softer than stock...
Sorry my friend, my car has the same rake after 15k miles...
I have seen people with koni shocks in the rear sitting just over the tire, so the shocks i guess make a difference

He said that they sent him the wrong rear springs. That's why the rear is so high.

his rears dont have the .2 at the end of the spring number. that makes all the world in the difference. I was the guinea pig back in 06 who found this out the hardway and contacted H&R directly and advised them to note the ss/na and ss/sc was in fact a different car and should be marketed as such, not just "ss"
