H&R lowering springs in UK yet?

Who would you guys recommend contacting about H&R springs in the UK.

The USA tuners are all dropping the M4 a little which seems to improve the look.

I'm awaiting springs for the cab - which should be shortly after launch but want to find the right UK tuner.

Recommendations?

The only thing is the back seems just that little bit too low for me. Not sure where to get them from in UK yet

We have a few sets of M4 sport and super sport springs in stock ready to go and wouldn't mind shipping directly to you. Feel free to shoot me a PM and I'll get a quote going your way

Looking forward to seeing it and the size of the drop.

Can then decide if Eibach or H&R is way forward.

Really keen to see what the ride quality is like?

Also did you buy M4 springs or F33 versions?
