M Performance Suspension
Hi all!
I believe there is an answer to my question somewhere in this forum but I can't seem to find it. Shivaswrath feel free to chime in! Basically I lowered my car on the H&R Sport Springs and have enjoyed it quite a bit. Awesome firm ride; just the way I like it. However after getting the M Sport package, I feel like the front is just too low. I can't go over speed bumps now! My question is two-fold. Coming from a Luxury Line and getting the H&R Sport Springs; how many mm's did my car get lowered by? Now if I remove these springs and install the M Performance Suspension, how many mm's will my car be lowered by? I know the H&R dropped my car nicely but I'm thinking whether the M Performance suspension will give me nearly that much of a drop with a little clearance from the front. In reality, I'm trying to find out if my springs lowered my car by 30mm and the suspension will lower the car by 20mm, then I'm really increasing the car by 10mm. How much wheel gap does this equate to? I love the look of the springs but I need a little clearance up front. I'm also thinking maybe I should go coil overs but they're also pretty low. I hope I'm clear!

personally.. if i were you i would wait til the bilstein PSS10 comfort come to a retailer near you. perfect ride / comfort / height
doesn't it get expensive having to swap out springs, and align, wait for mechanic to finish. Such a headache! Why dont you find pictures of m-sport body cars with the performance suspension on it, in my opinion its a very nice height, and would be 20mm lower than STOCK, 10mm lower than sport. and would be probably be at least 20mm higher than your current setup |

It's a great daily driver height, H&R IMO is too low for the steep drives we have here in the Northeast.
