I have H&R Sports. The Supersports are a bit lower. I'm sure someone will post a pic of them. The ride is just a little bumpier than stock. I don't find it bothersome at all. The drop is 1.6" up front 1.5" in the rear.

I was just debating this myself. I opted for the SuperSports because the Pro-kit just doesn't close the gap up enough. I just ordered them on Friday so I don't have any pics yet, sorry.

I'm going to hijack your hijack!
First to answer your question I have the sports and I scrape my magnaflow catted x pretty often. I assume you'll have the same problem since the SS's are lower. You have to learn to go over speed bumps extremely slow and side ways if you haven't already.
Now on with the hijack of your hijack...did those plastic inserts on the vents of your Saleen hood come with the hood or did u pick them up seperately? I just got the same hood and can't find those inserts anywhere. I called Saleen and they said they don't make them any more.

Mu understanding is Eibach and H&R are manufactured at the same plant (identical production) in Germany.....the only difference is the name.

I have never heard of that! I wonder why Eibach's tend to sag after a while if they are the same as H&R and I havn't heard anything bout them sagging. I guess it possible, but i'd like to know.

:Cheers:

To be honest I do scrape every now and then. I was a bit worried at first but its happening less now. Theres some scraping on the left cat and the K member. Nothing serious. Right cat looks ok.
My 265/35 KDWs are really low profile for their size, so I dont think that helps. My 275/35s have a lot more sidewall, so I'll run them on the front next time and gain a tiny bit of clearance. Be reassured though, the car handles so god damn well! Its been months since I got the suspension done, and I'm kicking myself I didnt get it done sooner. Makes a world of difference!!!!

What do you mean by sagging? Do you mean the back will eventually drop lower than the front?

Correct, It could also go the other way. IE: Front lower than back

Well, my girlfriend at the time bought it for me as a B-day gift and she said when she ordered it they asked her if she wanted them or if she already had them. She never did tell me where she ordered it from. It was already painted with a big bow on it when I got it. Sorry for not being of much help.

Ya know what.....I confused the springs with wheel spacers. The wheel spacers are what I was talking about. Sorry about that!!

p.s. I hope they don't sag....I have the PRO-Kit on my '03 Cobra!!
