Great wheels -- looking good. Good luck on the fitment...those fronts and rears are going to stick out ~22 mm in front and ~20 mm in the rear as compared to the stock rims.

So I think I am the only person to attempt replacing the rear sway bar on my own in a garage with no lift.
Its going pretty well and the new rear sway bar is on but I am taking my time so no wheels on the car yet. I still need to bolt a bunch of things back up and I am waiting on some torque specs before I tighten up. I should be done tomorrow or Tuesday. |

Thanks! No rubbing at all. I went as low as it would in the back but the wierd thing is that is at the highest setting in the front right now. Not exactly what H&R was thinking. I would say its almost 2" lower than stock. |

Man that looks good. I have been wanting these for my black sapphire in matte black with the red time attack rings. How does it ride after being lowered, still smooth, do you have to ease it over bumps and out of drive ways?

Thanks! It actually rides softer than stock. The OEM RFs are pretty harsh. The spring rate doesnt feel much different than OEM. |
