I found the 4.6IS setup quite hard actually. Are the H&Rs softer?

OK,

I did the H&R springs and endlinks, however it seems like the car is no different!

What's going on here, just as someone said here with the endlinks. I know springs need to settle, but it's crazy. The ride seems softer than stock (which is good), but I expected the rear and front to be a little lower.

Did you measure your ride height before and after?

So lets get this straight, you changed the springs and made them softer, which will increase travel and worsen handling :rofl: j/k

After reading through all your post I would think 22's with a 2" drop would rub like crazy :dunno:

I don't think H&R's have a 2" drop.

I'm dropped on Eibach Pro-Kit springs which is about 1.2in lower all around. I want to go another inch lower, but I don't want to buy coilovers. Oh well.

Just posted that 'cause I'm bored @ work. lol.

I'm lowering my 4.6 mine either this week or next, just waiting for the springs to arrive. I'm going with eibach up front with a 30mm drop, and having the dealer lower the rear 30mm via DIS. So will take some before and after pics then.
