    Avant springs for the rear (H&R coil overs) to fix sagging issue

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I tried searching for anyone putting avant springs in the rear with the H&R coilover set up. I thought I heard that it can raise the rear a bit and the springs are stiffer. I'm at max height in the rear, and my wheel/tires tuck. Has anyone replaced the rear springs for the avant ones? How did your ride quality change? Stiffer spring in the rear would help the car rotate a little bit more?

    What are the spring rates on the avant springs vs the sedans that are 450? If I remember right.

    I'm curious about this as well. Same issue with my H&R Street Performance coilovers - I have the rears spun all the way up and I'm not tucking, but the tires are about even with the fenders and I would like to raise them up a bit more to elimiante the "reverse rake" illusion that is happening.

    I posted on the KW spring spacers post if it works with the H&R coils. It seems to work with Bilstein coils so far. This would be the easiest fix not messing with the avant springs not matching up to the dampers.
