Has anyone tried them? How are they?

 

Got them on now. A bit stiffer than stock and a nice drop. They're not exactly a huge boost to handling, but definitely make daily driving more fun.

 

Thanks. I might pick them up. So far, its those or Tein S Techs.
Which ones rides more comortably?

 

The struts would be also something to consider when riding comfortably. I have Swift Springs and kyb struts. The thing about Swifts, is that it tends to sag lower in the front drivers side than the passenger side. Swifts are created for Japanese cars or right handed drive. So if we were right handed drive it would have taken into consideration the weight difference. Since we're left handed, it makes the the drivers side a bit lower than the passenger side, noticeable when I took a look at the car a few years ago and thought something gave out. Something to consider if you plan on owning the car for 7+years.

Other than that, I haven't swapped them out since and each one drops the car a good amount, way better than stock. Eibach I believe is the same company as h&r, so correct me if I'm wrong. All of these springs drop the car a good amount to get rid of that ugly gap.

 

S-Techs are a good reason why you will end up with blown struts, lower the vehicle too much an have way too stiff of a spring rate. H-Techs would be a better bet, but personally now having the swifts, I choose them. Yes Eibachs and H&R are similar but they have their own differences. Epics are nice too for the ride.

 

Thanks for the info. I will order the H&Rs

 

I had H&R OE Sports on one of my cars and I liked them, but they didn't lower it enough and were realtively stiff but being progressive, they weren't brutal and you could stick with stock shocks without blowing them.

 

The only ones I see are the H&R Sport and Tein S-Tech for my 2012.
Both lower about 1.5"
The H&Rs should be ok with stock struts for now until they come out with something (KYB, Koni, Tokico) right?

 

H&R>S-Techs

 

Have you considered Swift springs or are you pretty set on H&R? I had swifts before and loved them

 

They don't have it avail yet.

 

Ah I see

 

My wife loves the H&R's on her wagon, perfect drop and not too stiff. They will blow the stock shocks though, so I suggest upgrading at the same time. I just recently installed Tokico D-Specs and love them!

 

1.5" drop is too much for stock shocks IMO.

 

Thanks guys. They currently don't have struts available yet. Should I wait? Kinda wanna put them on and when the struts are available, I'll transfer.
