This is my third lowering spring and finally I found the right ones. As most of you know all the lowering springs available are built for the AWD, so on the RWD the car looks like it is squatting.

H&R recently introduced lowering springs for the RWD (Part #28701-2) and the drop and stance is very nice. The front is a little lower than the rear which is perfect, because once you drive it evens out and it will not squat too much if you carry people in the rear.

The fronts are a bit softer than the Eibach, but the rears are significantly stiffer. The car turns better and feels sharper for some reason.

Guys, as I mentioned in my first post, the rear does sit slightly higher and the reason for this is that once you drive the car it will level. Furthermore its a 4 door car meant to carry weight in the back, so this is to help reduce squatting if you carry passengers or luggage otherwise they will have to make the rear extremely stiff, its already stiff enough.

Thanks for doing the hard work here. These springs sound exactly like the way I want the car to sit and ride.

Only finding them in Germany right now at Tunershop and their ebay site. Anybody know of a US Seller that carries them?

Just placed my order. Says they'll be here in 2 weeks.
 
Springs got here faster than expected. Although Tunershop says Germany on their eBay site the springs were shipped from a warehouse stateside.

Now to find a lift I can get on...too old to be on the ground doing spring changes.

Got them in. I didn't cut the rear spring at all yet. I want to wait and see how it settles.

My buddy another GTS came over on Ark GT-S and he's higher in the front and lower in the rear than my h&r RWD set-up

Hey, just to clarify, these will work on a 2022 GT1, and you don’t have to cut the bump stop?
 
My Dad and I installed these over the weekend

Day of, measured a 1.3" drop. Had the car aligned today, VERY happy with the results. It did take 6 weeks to get to me due to being back ordered. :)
