Yeah, white and black are the harder colors to see contrasts. The S-Tech's definately sit 1/4 to 3/8th inch lower.

I think people are a little off topic here. The point of this thread is to showcase a specific product and have actual real world shots of the H&R drop. Thanks to Sharif for being so proactive and doing that for us because before right now, we had no idea just speculation.

With that said, I think my car looks great!

To those who think the drop is too low, the one thing my cars have been over the years is anti-rice. In no way does this drop in person look too low. The body line lays at the top of the tire exactly what you would ask for. By far my favorite angle of the car in person is from the rear quarter panel looking down the side of the car.

Ride quality is also similar to stock, I would say about 90% the same. I have experienced no rubbing, and from my judgment it looks as if there is plenty of offset to safely play with in terms of wheel/tire width on all 4 corners.

Thanks again to Sharif and Forged Performance for a great deal on the springs and install. Truly a first class shop that cares to the greatest extent about each customers vehicle like it's their own.

The margins are so slim, there is no room for a GB. We hope you'll eventually buy some other things from us, or have us professionally install them for you!

Tirerack has them for a little cheaper, but nevertheless, you're price is great especially with the included shipping cost.

They will hurt you on shipping. And honestly, there is no money in springs guys.....

We always try to have the lowest prices out there on everything we sell.

Bit too low for my taste as well. Really wish somone had springs with a tad less drop (especially considering they will settle even more).

I heard Eibach Pro's were going to be less, especially in the back. Anyone have any word?

Sharif any ideas on other springs or coilovers coming?

Thanks

TEIN's are in development right now, but nothing will be available for at least 3 months.

I too was a little surprised by the level of drop, but still think it looks great, and will look insane with a set of 20's.

Nobody that has seen my G37, have said its "too" low..even though I think its a tad on the slammed side.
Here is another shot of mine, lowered with the TEIN G35 springs, so it's about 1/4 inch lower than the H&R's. Click on the image to make it larger.
