:: ECS Tuning :: New Sport Springs for 987 Spyder







Sport Springs are H&R's biggest sellers. Like similar products from other suppliers, they reduce fender gap, lower the center of gravity, and give your car a more aerodynamic, muscular look.

It's what you don't see that matters most when you choose H&R. Their springs are designed for your vehicle; no one-size-fits-all approach here. Spring rates are matched to your car to provide improved handling, while maintaining a sporty, but comfortable ride quality that you can live with. Lower your car, and lower your lap times with new springs from H&R!

H&R's production facilities are tested to be in excess of the standards necessary to achieve ISO9001 certification.

Furthermore, H&R is a technical partner with BMW Motorsport (who are, unfortunately, walking all over Porsche Motorsport this year).

H&R has an established heritage of industry respect and customer confidence due to the quality of their products, the definitive edge given to customers’ vehicles, and the additional benefit of knowing H&R works right out of the box.

In stock/availability?

Do you have any customer feedback? Don't want to degrade ride quality.
I put HR's on my 993 years ago and the look was great
But the nose "bobbed" a lot while driving on the highway.

How much do these lower the car?

We do currently have Boxster Spyder H&R Springs in stock, and ready for delivery.

I have always used H&R springs and never had a single problem with them. Could you describe this "bobbing" that you experienced? Perhaps it was the springs overpowering worn out struts. Worn suspension components can contribute to a number of problems, including a bouncing sensation.

These springs lower the car 3/4 of an inch on all four corners.

rubber_ducky is infamous around these parts
How are these springs different from H&R's boxster S springs? Different spring rate? Height?

The height is different but by just a few millimeters. As for the spring rate we have no way of knowing since H&R doesn't publish that information, I would assume they're stiffer but can't be a 100% certain.

Boxster S with H&R springs lowering specs:
Front: 35.50 mm
Rear: 30.48 mm

Boxster Spyder with H&R springs lowering specs:
Front: 39.05
Rear: 39.05
