No, I mean as far as ride quality. Is it the same, firmer, less firm..??

I'm new here. My suspension was done by Carousel MPLS. Measurements are 14.125 front & 14.55 rear, with nearly a full tank of fuel. Drove it for the first time since I first test drove it 3 weeks ago. The ride is definitely stiffer than my test drive before purchase & suspension fix. Now it's perfect. After a 100 mile road trip, ---- An awesome Beast!!!!
Is anyone ever going to take pictures and post them with the H&R springs on? And it would be nice to also hear how the car rides with them on. Just wondering.............

Thanks for the pics. How does it ride? Bouncy, or pretty much stock?
Nice, TylerRS6! Thanks for the pix.
That to me looks pretty good. Can you fit a finger between the front tire and the top of the wheel well?
I might go with this if the ride is stiff and not bouncy.
Man that looks good.
I would also like the feedback on ride quality. bouncy or firm.
Also, can you measure from center wheel hub to top lip of fender on the front and rear.
That will give us an idea on how low the drop is.
Oh, and did the dealer give you any BS about maybe they wouldn't cover the DRC fix if it went bad since they used aftermarket springs to lower the ride height? Sorta like voiding the warranty?
That has been hinted at downtown here when I inquired about a re-do w/the H&Rs, or even having somebody else do the H&Rs.
Just ordered the H&Rs from ECS @ $275 delivered 2nd day air! Can't beat that with a stick!
They are on sale for $202 right now. Site says they lower the F 1.4 inches/R 1 inch, and are stiffer than stock.
New DRC with H&R springs ride quality is great. Not bouncy at all...just more aggressive. I am so happy with this "upgrade". The handling is very much improved. Night/Day difference. No issues from the dealership at all. In fact, they sold me the springs. It will not effect the DRC warranty.
I cannot get a finger in-between the front tire and fender, or a piece of paper :-0 ...
I can get a finger in-between the rear tire and fender though. Occasionally, I have some rubbing in the front when turning over a bump or steep driveway. I haven't had the time to figure out where the rubbing is coming from, but will post results when I do. I'll also measure and post the drop.

Tyler, check that rubbing in the front, with the H&R's I am lowered to 13 1/8" front & 13 1/4" rear with KW's and I don't have any rubbing problems. I imagine your higher than this so I'm not sure where the problem is. These measurments are take from the center of the hubs to the bottom of the fender flare openings.
