H&R are very good. A friend has these teamed up with the Bilstein kit and they are superb!! ________________________________________ Previous china gti6 and Rallye owner.Now a proud Astor Gti 6 owner. Missing he BMW already... |

You want the front a little lower than the rear. Looking at the chassis, not the arches.________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

That is normal for a standard car, the chassis is usually flat to slightly nose down. The tyre/arch gap also depends on the size of tyre quite a bit. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

canceled the 40mm H&R and bought Eibach 30mm. And will try lowering from 20mm on the rear. Thanks for the help. The Eibach springs look better and stronger. |
