any pics of cut h&r springs?

heres another, 1/2 coil front & rear upper spring spacer cut... don't look quite as low as rookies though... maybe the different offsets affects the appearance too a bit...

ride is really not much worse than stock H&R's, maybe slightly stiffer in the front, but not bad at all... with the H&R's I think each half coil equals aprox 1/2" drop... don't think it would be a good idea to go more than 1 full coil anyway, spring'll start to be loose in it's pocket & want to pop out at full extension... also, seen some claim to have cut the rears too but both ends are formed ends so might not be the best idea to cut the rears really...

also, eibachs don't use as many coils as the H&R's, so each 1/2 coil cut will raise the spring rate much more than same 1/2 coil cut on H&R's & make it even stiffer
 
yeah, now that you mention it, that is part of the difference too I guess, mine are a little shorter, 315/30-22 & 265/35-22. looking at your pictures again I see the difference in tire height...
 
Does anyone have pics of H&Rs with 1/2 coil cut in the front, and nothing cut in the back? I want the front and rear wheel well gaps to be about the same and thus create a bit of a rake. Don't want the rears any lower than what the "stock" H&Rs make them sit. Rear end already gets pretty low when loaded up with the family and our gear.
 
Click on the link so you can see... I have 10mm spacers in the front and 20mm in the back...

Don't remember which is which but the brand is reliable..

I have not had any issues with alignment of vibration with my set up...
 
Humberto, did you cut the rear spring mounts?

Wait a sec...Humberto, in post #8, are those pics of 909FX's ride? Now I'm confused.
