H & R 54646 springs
What do you think of the use of the H & R 54646 springs? with factory and non-factory shock absorbers

If you use them with the factory shocks they will destroy them.
There are obviously much better choices in the market. If you lift the front end with a spring you need to use and aftermarket shock (Eibach, Bilstein, etc)

Do I see that the coils are $579 for the set of 4? That seems awful spendy. I think you can get a set of front and rear coils from Eibach or Dobinson's for something like $400
Does H&R make these themselves or are they made for them?

I am in another country. there is no choice.
H & R says that they can be used with factory absorbers.
although I also think that we need others.
5100 will be weak for these springs?

Damn Azerbaijan... was not expecting post from there brotha.
5100's will do just fine they are not weak just non rebuildable like the OEM struts. If you have access to those get em.
H&R make good stuff. Ran them on a BMW.

Just so I understand. Russian distributors refuse to send orders to Azerbaijan?
No I'm all the way in the state of Arizona in the U.S. but I recently watched a video about your beautiful country and it's people. Lovely all around. Would love to visit one day.

Would you be able to ship our man here a pro kit? Sounds like it might be an issue sourcing distributors out there.

I understand now. I would talk to some of the companies directly on this forum. They might be able to ship directly to your home. Might cut it down the wait a few weeks.
Thanks! What a gem.

I'm a fan of H&R on lowered vehicles as I've run several in my past life. For lifted trucks, never had experience but based on how stiff they are (at least with lowered vehicles, I'd rather run Eibach. H&R has always been known to be stiffer than most but quality is solid.
