h&r springs on stock suspension?

[barbor98]

Hey guys I bought springs and suspension parts from someone and it's the stock suspension, all new. I'll be lowering my car on 18 in rims? Tips, comments, concerns?

There might be some rubbing in the back when weight is applied. Be carefull when taking the rear struts off axle will fall. It is not Heavy but might break your brake lines if you dont support it. post pics when your done.

Well I'm a general motors Asep student and my car was just wrecked about a month ago. The suspension parts were replaced and now it's in the body shop. But I figured I'd put bigger subs in and lower it. Needless to say I'm worried about it rubbing. Especially with the new subs. But the shock and struts are brand new. So I have my hopes up. Will definitely post pics. Hope to have it done by this Saturday.

How much weight are we talkin? Do you usually have people in the back? If not there shouldnt be an issue. Good luck

Uhh two alpine type a subs in a ported box. I'll have to weigh it. Plus the amp and such. But that's about it. I might have a friend in the back once in a while but not often.
