H&R Springs....Who has them
I'm looking at getting some installed at Les Schwab and I want to know if anyone has these and what you think. They will lower 1.25" and that will be perfect for what I have now.


Thanks for the info guys

Les Schwab has them on order and are being installed when they get in. I didn't see them anywhere else. I would get something else but I have a friend who works there that can help me out with them. We'll see i guess
I'd like to see pics after installed...I'm about to put some B&G's in (hopefully by next week, they've been staring at me for 5 months now...) which lower about the same, 1.4", with some Illuminas.
...have 211,XXX+ on the stock fronts and it sucks really bad...gunna replace the original tie rods (!!!!) too....don't ya love buying old cars!
BTW...ditto on the H&R/FB question...they sure don't show up on the H&R website...be very wary! You'll end up with repainted, cut, stockers...

well they are being ordered from Les Schwab so I'm sure they'll be real. If not...then i guess i'll be looking for something else. The Eibachs and RB don't lower enough. I think the gap will fill just perfect.
How do those tires handle? I got the same ones for the protege, and I want to run the same config as yours (konigs and proxie4's) on the RX as well. Nice lookin car!

The tires are great for what your pay for. The stock 13's just aren't wide enough and these 15x7s with 205/45/15s are so much better. I mean I've been able to out handle pretty much any car on the road(07 WRX, 02 Imprezza, and all my EG buddies). I've taken a 20 MPH corner at 70 MPH and just completely stuck it with no tire squeal. I am truly impressed with these tires with STOCK suspension. Can't wait to see what it can do when lowered
Wow, who pulled this thread out of the closet?
Okay, update for 2009 while I'm here. Better options now available, and the cost of coilovers has some down. Better vendors, more choices.
