Who's got H&R sports?

I really wanted to stay away from lowering the car but its really starting to bother me that the back sits perfect but the front is a little jacked. Hows the ride? Especially around the city and stuff? If anyone with them is gonna be at best buy tomorrow I'd love a ride to see how it is

You both need a drop and don't try to convince yourself the back sits perfect at stock ride height!!!

Just make sure you do it right and change the shocks & struts too. If not, go with coilovers.

driveway should be fine with your underpanel clearance but with lip and depends on your driveway you migh thave a problem with scraping the lip but you can try to angel it... try to measure how much the clearance is compare to the lowered height with the lip.
