    i agree with Mac R. , His pic looks dead on. I however recently installed H&R Street Coilvoers and much to my surprise, i was tucking front tire and at the rear tire all the way down w/o removing helpers, collars, etc.

    I took the R to the WiTW at the Deals Gap/ Tail of the Dragon this previous weekend and they out performed my expectations. H&R gets a thumbs up for sure. The Street Perf coillvers handled phenominal considering how low I was. Here is a pic from kill biy to show u what im refering too.



    In this picture, the front was under load, so i wasnt actually that low, lol. but i had raised the front say 8 - 10 threads, so in reality it has the ability to go that low. Quite a few people commented on how comfortable while still performing on the dragon these coils were. My vote is for the streets from now on, unless its a dedicated track car/ auto x and then go with the RSS. as u can tell , I like H&R, lol



    This is what the car looks like with 10 threads to go in front.

    Dont let the picture deceive you lol. it needs a few things. KWs are deff a good choice but id rather not spend North of 2 grand for a suspension setup I prob wont ever need Rebound dampening as i dont track the R.

    Post up pics, when u get whatever you get

    I love my KW v1's. They are a comfortable ride and have performed well beyond my expectations. I found them for $900 around Christmas.
