No clearance issues, and I was also surprised that the ride
quality didn't suffer either.
I just posted a pic in another thread that shows the ride height better

check out your car, the fenders are already "rolled around", rolling fenders is for civic's and the such.. even running 325 rears in 997.2 it did not need a roll.. the 991 is even wider.


the new springs are progressive which means they get harder as compressed, so the ride is soft but stiffens before it would damage any part of the ride (shocks)

Love the look Limey - did anyone consider the Champion Motorsports springs? Any real difference from the H&R's?

Looks great Limey. I'm pondering doing springs myself, was going to wait until after I see how the regular suspension does on the track. Are Damptronics available for the 991?

Thanks. when i was researching i believe the champion springs that where available at that point wouldnt provide the drop that i wanted. Im not sure about the damptronics availability...

Here you go. Had the H & R springs installed after 1,500 or so miles and wouldn't go back. I personally feel the ride is a tiny bit harsher, but enough to return to stock. The stance is just right.

Stock springs.


Lowered with H & R springs.

Got mine installed 2 weeks ago right after I got the car.
Only cost me total $600. $300 for parts, $300 for labor. The shop also put on the spacers for me 7mm front and 14mm rear. That cost $155.

One little warning for people interested in doing the spring. The front shocks need a special socket wrench to take out. Apparently there is a wire coming out of the nut. So you can just use closed ended socket.

Thanks to Anthony in IND Distribution in Palatine IL. A Great guy, great shop!!
