Default ITR springs vs H&R OE springs

Any thoughts on the two springs?

Here's my situation: they are going into a 98 4 door GSR. I don't want the car slammed but I would like a stiffer ride and a slightly lowered stance.

Any comments would be welcomed.

thanks,

H&R OE's are a bit stiffer than the ITR's but not by much.

gotcha.

Looking to buy a set of ITR with $100 shipped... I am trying to figure out if the extra cost of the H&R's are worth it.

Go for the OE's since they are only $50 more. Mine turned out lower than advertised at about 1 1/8". <U>http://www.kingmotorsports.com/product.asp?detail=775</U>

if ur gonna get eibach, do not get the pro kit. they are weak.

the front will be higher then the rear.

and the rear will sag like a mother..............

the rear springs are not stiff. hella weak.
the front are stiff.

everything is off.

if you even put one guy in the rear, the rear will have NO finger gap between the wheel and fender.

the front will have about 3 finger gap.

I'm running ITR springs and Koni shocks on my 97 4dr. They will lower your car more than the .58-.75" that people claim. I would say they lowered my car at least 1", possibly 1-1/8". Anyways, the ride is great and it doesn't look 'slammed'.

Got the same combo on a 94 GSR Coupe. Great combo...car feels so much tighter than stock.

I'm on stock shocks, but the ride is still pretty firm(sometimes I would like it to be firmer, but then I'd hate daily driving). I have about 1 finger gap in the back and 1.5 in the front. That's only becaues of the difference in the wheel well size. I'd recommend these springs
