Default H&R Sport R owners

With H&R sports installed running with the stock shocks... will the back of the car "appear" to be sitting low like R's with the spoon springs? What causes that? If it does, are shocks the only way to correct it?

I will be picking up shocks soon, after, but i dont have enough for those yet, so just the springs will be going on for a while.

I have them, and my car "appears" to be lower in the back.. I have been told it is due to the larger wheel wells in the front

My GS-R w/ H&R Sports on my Koni shocks w/ the perches at stock height, sat higher in back. I put my rear perches on the lowest setting to even it out. And when I mean higher, I'm talking 1-finger gap in front, and 2 fingers in back (double).

I think mine looks about the same, front and back, maybe a one finger gap.

Stock shox, H&R Sports for the past 1200 miles...


EDIT:
I just read George's Spoon post, and my front and back both have the same drop as his front. My back is not that low. It looks just like that GSR drop and PY that is the post below mine. Consistant front and rear. I like...

I have the H&R sports on my LS with Bilstein shocks. Yes i agree, it appears as though the rear drops lower then the front. I don't know why this is ... hmmm.

The H&R drop looks much like the comptech drop...or am I wrong, what are the specs.
