Anyone using H&R Race springs?
Im thinking of getting some H&R Race springs for my FD but was wondering how the ride quality is on them. The car is my daily driver but I dont mind having a bumpy ride. Im planning on using them with my existing Tokico Illuminas set on the softest setting for the street. Anyone have experience with these springs? Thanks!

I did a search but didnt find anyone using the Race springs. Everyone uses the Sport ones since theyre the in between springs (not too hard, not too soft).
I guess my biggest concern with the Race springs is the drop. Its supposed to lower the car from 1.75"-2" depending on car. I want to know if it lowers it 2", will I have to switch over to a 225/45/16 tire?

i've got the race springs and the ride isn't much harsher than the r1 ride. the only thing i don't like is the car doesn't sit totally even on both sides. i'll have mine up for grabs here soon as my tein flex's should be in

Sorry; I didn't realize there were two kinds offered by H&R.
- OE SPORTS: Lower the car a bit. For wussy drivers.
- SPORT: Firmer spring rate and lower the car more. For the weekend enthusiast.
- RACE: Stiffest of them all and lowers the car the most. For the crazy **** who doesnt care about smooth rides.
These descriptions are short versions of what the website says.

the front left rubs quite a bit on the fender lining under hard turning, but not during typical driving. i have 245/50's all the way around
