Default Do H&R springs sag?

Over time on your accord, do the H&R springs sag?
I put this thread here cause accords weigh more then civics and integras, so I think sag would b more of an issue for accords.

From what I have experienced, No.

But it is only the inevitable that overtime a material begins to wear down.

How long do you plan to stick with the H&R springs?

I highly doubt that the springs will sag in a year. However, if the car is constantly loaded, you might reduce the life of the springs. For example, if you have 2 15" woofers, 4 amps and constantly ride over bumpy roads with 4 people in the car, it will not last as long as someone who rides solo with a singel 10 on the highway

ironically it usually is a single person withe single 10 on the highway.
Are you stereotyping me?

I've always heard good things about H&R springs, I wouldn't worry about them sagging. Besides, they should carry some sort of warranty I would think.
