I love my H&R Sports....

Craig@SupremePower · 01-19-2010, 07:00 PM

H&R sports imo..

yoyeewee · 01-19-2010, 07:07 PM

If you don't want the ride to be too bumpy, get the eibach. If you want a more aggressive drop, get the H&R. I've had both brands and that's what I experienced.

CaptainKibbles · 01-19-2010, 07:11 PM

so h&r sport would be an agressive drop? i'm looking more for looks than performance

D.yi · 01-19-2010, 07:20 PM

eibach prokit ftw. ride is great! drop is subtle and perfect.

Both cars that i dropped had the eibach prokit. Both still had a really good ride, and looked great IMO....however, i never wanted the cars slammed, so a big drop was not what i was looking for. If i drop the 335 i will def go with eibach.

CaptainKibbles · 01-19-2010, 07:51 PM

what about eibach sportline? will they b just as good of a ride?

envision · 01-19-2010, 08:05 PM

I voted for Eibach Pro. If you're going for looks only, then H&R Sports or Eibach Sportsline, or even H&R Race would look better cosmetically. You'll pay for it in ride comfort though, and anything beyond Eibach Pros, you'll probably also have to replace the stock shocks.

Eibach Pros are a good blend of looks and comfort.

cotmfk · 01-19-2010, 08:35 PM

Coilovers!

Sorry, just had to do it! I would say... not eibach. I had a set of those and they blew my shocks within 10k miles.

ibeclueless · 01-19-2010, 08:39 PM

H&R would be my choice if I was to get it now.

CaptainKibbles · 01-19-2010, 10:41 PM

so between H&R Sport and Eibach pro which one would be a better fit with my non-sport shocks?

Revive · 01-19-2010, 11:32 PM

I've had Eibach Pro-kit in my first car, and the drop was VERY subtle. If your looking for a slightly more of a drop, I would go with H&R. I H&R in my last car, and the drop was just perfect. I would go with, without a question, H&R again, but I'm getting KWs!

CaptainKibbles · 01-19-2010, 11:41 PM

I wish i had the money for KW's!! but for now just springs

ianbiz · 01-20-2010, 12:46 AM

I was in the same boat as you. I ended up going with HR Race.

smack · 01-20-2010, 09:53 AM

H&R is the only way to go.

Eibach Sportline, The Best Option,

SV Concepts III · 01-20-2010, 01:29 PM

H&R Sport gets my vote, it's the best option for a more aggressive ride and stance without being too harsh for daily use.
