How low can springs go?

[carl]

Which country are the H&R springs made in? How do you 'lowered' people get on with the new ride height? The underside of the front of my car is pretty shabby after some graunching on kerbs, etc. at standard ride height.

My old zed was pretty low. Lower than H&R. You just have to be carefull. I never did any damage to the bumper or underneath.

M bumpers attract more damage, so you need to be a little more carefull.

i would say you guys are on springs are defo lower than i am on coilovers ( set high) do you find any rubbing issues??? i can get a good 2 finger between tyre and arch, the spring only setups look really low, the cars do look much better low however, also how are the stock dampers handling the lower spring???? think this would be good info for people like woots who are looking to make the change and cant stretch to a coilover setup....

About 500 miles for them to settle in and then get an alignment done.

Also, obviously less then optimal running the stock shocks, as they would have been set at a different height than what your running with lowered springs.
