Product Description
H&R Coilovers are engineered to bring racing functionality to any vehicle. Using a monotube construction and high quality materials, H&R fine tunes each coilover to provide an ideal balance between handling and comfort for all applications. Height adjustability is standard on all models through a threaded shock body and easy to adjust spring seats. As usual, nothing is left to chance with every type of H&R coilover and only the best in materials and engineering design is utilized.
H&R created the perfect suspension for any car that sees the street all the time and occasionally a race track or two. Street Performance coilovers have a great range of usability. Each coilover setup is precisely engineering together with matching spring rates and valving to make an extremely fine tuned setup for every application. Street Performance coilovers feature a fully threaded shock casing which allows you to lower the vehicle’s height and change where you want the stance and center of gravity. H&R’s coilover kit will allow the vehicle to expose its handling potential in all situations and remain completely comfortable to drive on the street every day.

meh
The parts were well packaged and arrived quickly. There were no instructions in the packaging, nor can any be found online. This is an issue, because it's not clear how to orient the bearing on the front coilovers. It was also unclear if the OE bumpstops were needed on the rear shocks. I highly recommend new OE front strut bearings, and new OE upper mounts for both the front and the rear. The bracketry for the brake lines was crooked on both front shocks - this was done at the factory, and not due to shipping damage. Otherwise, the parts were top quality. The design of the rear spring perches means that the rear suspension has to be disassembled to adjust ride height - that is a big issue for me, as the KW coilovers I previously had could be adjusted simply by jacking up the rear wheels. The ride is noticeably harsher than my old KW V1's, and on hard bumps the suspension hits the bump stops (even with the ride height at the max allowable by H&R). Overall, I feel these are too expensive for "cheap" coilovers, and they don't have the right features and don't ride well enough to be "high quality" coilovers - I recommend KW's for that.

Stiff but I like it....
Ordered these because I was looking for less weight transfer and not to mention my stock struts were shot. Install wasn't too bad, I would suggest new front strut mounts when you order these. I put these on my car and a friend's car and the stock strut mounts weren't in very good shape. All in all 7out of 10 on install difficulty, stiffer ride but that's what I wanted and I love them.
