That's not what I asked. How do YOU know this info as you were the one who claimed this? Where is it disclosed by Eibach?

H&R also creates a rake with the rear higher than the front. This bothered me so I went with coil overs. I have a slightly used set for sale.

I went H&R and have no complaints about ride quality. I also have a body kit so my bumper lip sits lower than stock and manage to get around without scraping everywhere. But, I do think twice about certain driveways, and always make sure I can get a good angle going up or down to minimize scrapes.

I went H & R as well. Feels slightly stiffer than OEM and looks a whole lot better than stock height.

All these whips look great. I assume there are camber adjustments to be made, even at a mild .5 - 1.0" drop, yes?

Yes, after the tech installs the springs, they need to do a full alignment.

recently got around to using H&R's that were sitting for a while......should have done it sooner

better question; why didn't the 997 S feel like this from the factory overall subtle improvements with pasm on or off and still smooth enough for daily use.

Just posted up a set of set of barely used Eibach lower springs in the marketplace forum for those who want to come down closer to the ground!
