That is with 18" wheels tho. I'll try an remember to get a measurement from the center cap to the fender so you'll have a better idea of the space you'll have.

That's embarrassing. I Completely ignored your tire height in that number.

Now that they've settled in, did they drop anymore?

I'm really tempted to sell these sportlines sitting in my closet and buy the HRs just based off your results alone. Unbelievably tough to find consistent information out there.

I just went out and measured my '13 with 20" wheels on 255/35/20, 285/30/20 tires lowered on H&R supersports. I measured from ground to fender.

Front: 27 1/4
Rear: 27 1/8

Your good people, bujeezus. Thanks for helping me out.

I'm guessing those tires of yours are right at 27" tall?

Grim, don't let it get around. I'm usually an asshole. Lol!

Actually, they're 26" but they are down to the tread wear marks. Time for some 255/45s...

Nope, 255/45. Not a fan of the "rubber band" tire look. I like some meat on my tires.

I'm the same way. I spent so much time trying to make a 285/35/19 fill the gap with low springs all because I wanted the extra width but those 275/40s sure do fill up a fender well.

I've got a frankenstein setup currently. Originally I bought SR springs for a 1.5" drop all around. Still too high in the rear so I picked up a pair of rear Sportlines from a forum member here. Leveled it out pretty much, maybe just a hair taller in the front. Finally said fuck it and bought a set of the H&R Super Sports today so will post up results when I get em installed.



That's what I'm trying to do. I have SR and the rear is bothering me. Do you have pics of the Frankenstein setup?

LMR with the forum discount was the best price I could find. I love em! Just wish I had gone this route to start. I was tryin to decide between Sportlines and SR and hadn't even heard of the H&Rs.

That's the best price I could find as well. I haven't ordered mine yet since I need to sell the sportlines first.
