I'm planning to lower my car with some H&R sportline (1.2 drop) on my '05 997 coupe and wanted to get some feedback anyone who has these or would rec any other options that wont cost me an arm and a leg. Just got wheels and looking to reduce the gap. thanks.

 

I did. It looks much better and helped me shave a solid second off my lap times at my local track. It reduced the sway and transition time when changing directions on the track.

 

I say go for it. That set-up seems to be a popular mod and will enhance the car. Just be careful with high and low spots in the road! I have had my GT3 for a few months and already need a new lip from the scrapes!

 

H&R are great springs. We put them on almost every car that we do for events, and happy to report never had any problems.

You wont regret it!

 

^^Ryan, do you guys carry H&R springs? I didn't see on your website

 

i would recommend Eibach springs.

Also read some info here:

i was told by my body shop that since eibach coils are closer together, they make a noise when driving so they rec H&R..

 

i have eibachs and no noise, yet.

BTW, does that shop carry H&Rs and the Eibachs? just curious.

OP, any progressive springs will be fine.. techart, eibach, or h&r... but they will all sag sooner or later.

for performance, go with coilovers.

 

i have 235/30/20 in the front and 295/25/20 in the rear. if i lower with H&R (est 1.2 drop), anyone know if i will rub and need to roll my fenders?

 

Totally depends on the offset/width of your wheels. If they are reasonably close to stock you should be fine.

 

We do not have them listed on our site, but we do have plenty of aftermarket suppliers with them.

PM me your car details and I can let you know pricing.

 

H&R here with no issues, IMO, Porsches should come from factory this way with no fender gaps.

 

Go with H&R. I have them on my 05 C2S and it sits perfect, and handles great. If you are ever in Mountain View, your more then welcome to come over and check it out. Message me if you want to look at it.

 

cool. good deal. I decided to do it..i'm actually doing it at a shop in mt view.

 

Does it matter if the car has the pasm button? Or that has nothing to do with the springs. Who sells those H&R's for a good deal?
