h&r springs: sedan vs. coupe.

twfa1 · 02-25-2008, 10:11 AM

i bought a set of h&r sports and when i brought them home, realized they were the ones with the part number for a coupe (51867) instead of a sedan (51868). according to the h&r website, the drops heights are 1.6" and 1.3" respectively on the front. both are spec'd as 1.3" in the rear.

all the others manufacturers have the same spring for both applications. it's just the spring rate to account for the weight differences, right?

I am pretty sure that the weight difference isn't much, like 60lbs or so.
