are thesesprings really bouncy or are they pretty good? anyone have them? will i need a camber kit to get the race spring (1.9"drop front, 1.6" drop rear)
thanx for any help

 

I use to have the race springs and I liked em, they were not bouncy at all.

 

the race springs will drop more than that. I have a set for sale. $100 plus shipping.

 

they are really good springs, pretty much all of H&R suspension products are good

 

I had them on an EK hatch paired up with KONI Yellows. The handling was just too sweet...

 

they're good

 

well, to make it appropriate for the apperance forum, heres a H&R race equipped civic:
On SILVER 16" k1's

Same car on 16" TE37's:



I have experience with the H&R lineup from the sports to the full race coilovers.
Best value out there, no other company can match it.

No camber kit, but i road race the car, and have the negative camber set to my preferences.

 

I love my H&R/ Tokico combo!

 

i loved my h&r sport/tokico combo also!!!

-P

i hated mine, i want to go back to eibach.

 

I have H&R springs on my SI but not sure which ones because they were on the car when I bought it. Only mod done to it. All I know is that next to my brother's old EM1 with Tokico 1.5" drop mine was a lot lower. But the ride is pretty good and I really like the stance. Need struts badly now though.

Can anyone tell which springs (sport or race) I have from this pic?

 

tokikos are garbage. I reccomend koni yellows are the very least

You have the sports. That looks just like my drop with sports and yellows.

And after looking at your pic, i really need to add a lip to my front end!!

If that is directed towards me I honestly have no opinion about them because I have never ran them. My brother got them for his because he just wanted a decent lower suspension and Honda didn't make anything factory. That car never saw a hard corner and probably never made it over 90mph. For his new EBP EM1 we are doing the same setup this weekend.

thats what i have on my 00 hatch, that and some swaybars...those with good tires make the car handle great

no disrespect. Just for those wondering in the future. My brother had tokikos and to say the least we where really dissapointed compared to the konis. After the tokikos blew shortly thereafter, we switched to Koni and it has been a more than noticeable difference. And they have lasted 3 years longer

 

how low do the race springs go? the site say 2.5 in the front and 2.3 in the rear, i am thinking of getting some but dont know it it'll be too low for daily drive. any more pics of race springs on 16"&gt;?

ive got a 00 hatch with race springs, koni yellows, 15 in slips and 195/50/15 toyos

fronts set on the middle perch(on the struts), and rears set at the top perch. gives it kind of a agressive look...i get some pics up later

 

When I said I loved mine, it was from a point of how they were for daily driving. They improved handling and still gave me a really stock feeling ride.

I'll be getting something with a lot higher spring rates for this season when I actually track my car.

-P

 

good if you want a harsh ride with a slammed look.

 

I heard they sag in time, I would give eibach or tein a try

I've heard they sag in time also but never from anyone who has a set. It is always a friend of mine had them sag or a guy I know had them sag. I know mine haven't but if it is something he is worried about then Eibach and Tein are good choices also for a little more money.

I had HRs on mine and the back did actually sag the first 2 months I had it. At first i was able to fit 1 finger in the gap and after no fingers.

 

will H&R race springs work with 17s on a 4g lude?

 

No "race" spring should lower the car 2" plus. That`s just stupid. Plus, they don`t even make their springs, just slap their name on them and the box
