H&r sport springs

Hey,
If you're looking for a nice drop on a F83 I would highly recommend you go with the H&R Sport Springs DO NOT go with the Super Sport Springs though. the Super Sport Spring make the ride really bouncy specially at high speed though they do give you a SLAMMED drop. I attached a picture of my set up for reference.

Thanks man, I already got the eibach, I wanted mild drop to get rid of the gap, H&r has mixed reviews, nice looking drop, how's the ride ? Tire wear, do you have factory struts? How are they holding up?

Hey,

My car drives like stock. I have the stock Adjustable suspensions which works just fine with no error codes. My car currently has 52k miles on the clock and i put these springs on my car since I had 11k on the clock. So far so good with no suspension issues and tire wear is pretty normal actually. My last set of tires lasted 23k miles of hard driving which i think is pretty good

Beautiful convertible! I too have the same question as the OP. After my m235 got totaled, I upgraded to a mineral white m4 convertible last month , My f83 came lowered on H&R springs. It is SLAMMED. I did plenty of research, HR made f83 specific springs, but it appears to all have the same Identifier on the springs between super sports ""28802" the -1,-2,-3 aren't imprinted on the spring. I wonder if they're all the same? Either way the f83 specific lowers the car 1.5f/1.1r, and super sports for f82 lowers by 1.6f/1.0r basically same height, possibly different rates cus of the heavier weight of the convertible.

I'm thinking about going Eibach Pro kit, for less of a drop, but like the OP said there seems to be zero information on these.. I'll post some pictures of how slammed this thing is, I'm trying to install my front lip, but with this height, it'll be sure to rip off in a couple of weeks.

I've done extensive research on rolling diameters and what not. These wheels were off my m235, I bought winter tires and threw em on these wheels for cost-effectiveness. The front tires are 225/45/18, which is the same 26" diameter as the OEM 255/35/19, just need some spacers to push them out a bit. Sometimes it appears toe Eibach leaves a huge gap in the front, just want to know how f83's sit on Eibach pro's. I have very little clearance for a front lip =/

I decided to purchase the Eibach for f83. Want less of a drop, gonna be selling these HR's soon. I just put 20mm spacers on, looks way better now! These will do for winter wheels. I couldn't stand the yellowing of the OEM film on the rear quarter panel. So I had the entire rear quarter and whole front PPF'd with clear ceramic wrap.

Your car looks hot! It's making me second-guess myself with all these extra carbon fiber parts I ordered, it sorta really doesn't need the side skirts, front lip, etc.. That drop is perfect, I was afraid the Eibach pro kit wasn't going to be low enough.

Are you running stock tire size 255/275?
