Thanks for sharing your findings.
I do believe though a lowering spring is better matched with a performance shock that has dampening adjustments. Back in the day there was a Koni Sport kit which included Koni Yellows and H&R sport springs and there was also the Dinan Stage 1 Kit which had the same parts. Down the line that kit was changed and now is sold with Eibach lowering springs.
My wife's car is on the Koni sport kit and my only gripe with it is the rake of the car. However the wheel gap is equal between the fenders and tire on all 4 corners. As far as the ride quality goes, it drives great over bumps, potholes and other road imperfections.

Noticed my passenger rear shock was leaking when changing over to the winter wheels. More than likely going the route you post up in the updated thread.
You are making me feel guilty that I haven't posted the updated guide yet. It's basically done, just need to spend more time editing it. Grad school has kept me busier than I would like.

Hahaha sorry! I won't rush you. I was talking to a co-worker and he might sell me his H&R sport cup kit for a bargain...
Omg, story of my life. The only good thing in having my car in storage for winter now is that it's not as big of a distraction. But still, I find myself browsing this forum, others, and kijiji multiple times a day. And have started designing some stuff I want to make that will support more tracking next year
