Question Springs for 997S with PASM???

Hi! I try Gemballa Springs made by H&H for my 997S with PASM and you have a very hard ride...very unconfortable!!!

Which ones do you recomend?
Thanks!

i have the techart and they arent so bad, but they dont drop the car as much as the h&R, if you could afford to go with the pss9 then that is your best bet, you will probably be able to sell them for a good price when you are done with your car also.

I have H&R from H&R and they ride fine.

Now that the PSS9 is out for PASM, that would be my choice.

Ditto on the PSS system now that they are available for PASM. Put one one a cayman monday, and a 997S yesterday. They are no longer called PSS9's because they don't have the 9 way adjustment as the pre PASM systems did. Definetly a difference between sport mode and non sport mode.

I do have a used set of cargraphic lowering springs for a 997C2S with PASM. They have about 4k miles on them, and were removed to install the PSS bilstein system

i just had the h&r springs installed and the ride is very close to stock. i have dropped several of my cars and the 997 has the least difference in terms of ride quality compared to stock. the coilovers are a great option but if you arent ready to spend the extra cash right now then go springs. i plan on getting as much mileage out of the stock suspension as i can and then doing coilovers...

thats a damn good price. considering the TT's are in the 7500 range. I was quoted 3500 for a set (from a local shop) with OEM PASM adjustability.

I had been checking around ask what is the best way to lower my car, all most every professional shop told me get the "BILSTEIN COILOVERS PSS9 KIT". They are around $2800 - $3000 it work with our PASM system.
