How different does your SHO ride with the H&R spring?

[Rich196]

I was just curious if I'm feeling the same ride as everyone else. I installed the H&R springs on my 2013 SHO a little over a month ago, and now that all the springs have settled in, my ride is MUCH rougher, which I expected, and also have no problem with. Also, when I installed the fronts with the car still on the lift, the springs just sit in there loose until you drop it? The fronts just seem to be a little low in my opinion, I have to be careful when like going over a decent hump to go slow or the fronts will rub the top of the wheel well when the car comes down, is this normal?

I assume you mean the front tires....? or is it the front Plastic Dam
My ride is a tad stiffer (like 30%) than normal, and on a bad stretch of road you notice it
and over a speed bump or bad driveway transition the lower front Plastic Dam will Rub....
but Overall the lowering make the car feel much smaller than the stock ride, and it is
not as bad as the other lowered cars i have done (1994 Caprice LT1),
that when you put it on a rack you actually have to guide the rear springs back into
the holders when you put it back on the ground..

So all in all i am way happy with the H&R's and as it goes, willing to put up with the negatives :disgust:

I think the ride is great, I would prefer the front to be a touch higher though. If they ever make us 2013+ car coilovers....

Like iron mentioned, I have rubbed the bottom of the nose a couple of time on a driveway or 2 but pretty sure tires have never rubbed in the wells. I actually loved the ride of the stock springs on my 13 PP but the lowered look is worth it in my opinion. If given a choice, I don't think I would bring the front up at all.

Thanks guy's, after you mentioned it, I do believe it's the front spoiler. Dont get me wrong, I love the ride, feels way more like a sports car now.

Mine seems to drag the center cross member over speed bumps if I do not go as slow as possible and at an angle, that is obnoxious...
