Quite possibly nothing as I didnt delve into the structures but H&R stated to SupremePower, who did my install, that they will not work with the FAL. The pricing was similar so I just went with what my installer suggested and the TA option drops the car just a bit more than the H&R (just a benefit of the choice I made) in the front.

Good move to go with installers recommendation; would have done the same and supreme power is a good shop to have a relationship with.

H&R actually drops more, no?

The descriptors on the website are not exact but TA says 25mm to 30mm while H&R stated .8 inch/1.0 inch. Im sure the difference would be minute but I did want to have the front more level with the back so it worked out that TA was also the right option with the FAL.

Based on the stance afterwards I am very happy with the total drop.

Edit: Supreme does most of my work on my last group of cars and they are local so its a great partnership.

I don't know if you noticed the blue sign with white bold letters directly above your left front wheel. It seems appropriate though.

We have spring down here in the south so both cars came out of the garage. The weather is great as long as you don't mind all the pollen in the air.
