Default H&R OE springs

Anyone go from H&R Sport springs to H&R OE springs? From the specs, it seems to be a big difference in lowering height. (1.75/1.5) to (.75/.75). Anyone have the OE springs and satisfied with the drop? Some pics would be nice.

I'm probably going to get the OE springs for ride height clearance issues. My right tire has been rubbing ever since I got a camber kit installed. Changing the camber closer to stock made my right wheel brush up against my upper fender lip when making hard right turns. It's kinda annoying. I figure the extra ride height would help in the snow too when it snows up here. What do you guys think? I could then sell my camber kit and springs.

I've got H&R OE springs with Koni yellows. I think the ride height is perfect (only slightly lower than an ITR). The ride is comfortable, but the spring rate on em isn't that high, so you won't exactly be a handling monster. I just checked my camber today and they are all around -1 so it's not bad at all.

H&R OE and Koni Yellows are the best combo. You'll get the nice lowered look without losing the stock ride quality. Also, they are stiff in turns.

I had the H&R OE springs then switched to the Sports. I liked the fact that I never had to worry about scraping with the OEs, the handling was also pretty good for an OE spring, and the ride quality was decent also. I wasnt satisfied with the ride height you could barely tell it was lowered at all.

I like the Sports, they are a good height but I wish they were a little higher I don't like having to watch the road too much. The handling is a bit better, and the ride quality is not that much worse imo. I am thinking of going to some OE springs again, since I moved up north and have to worry about winter and snow and all that fun stuff tho
