I did Eibach Sport set - which is like 1" front and rear.

Thinking I should have done the H&R which is 1.5-1.8" front and rear.

Lower than that and you'll need shocks, camber, etc.

Ben@RGSport is the man to ask.

I had the H&R VTF before and my measurements were 29.5" fronts and 30" rears. Also 15mm and 20mm h&r spacers.

Good morning
I used the h&r springs in the front with the Dinan bump stops plus the height links in the back due to ( air suspension in the back )
