Just a reminder. After lowering your Cayenne you likely will need to recalibrate the camera and sensors. Otherwise, you may experience problems with the driver’s assistance systems, such as the Porsche Active Safe, Adaptive Cruise Control, and High Beam Assist.

Thanks Schnave. I'll definitely keep that in mind if I decide to go that way. On the fence about it for now.

Anyone with any updates on lowering their Cayenne. Have a 2015 that I'd like to lower with Springs. H&R and Eibach make some. Look forward to hearing more feedback on who has done it.

Thanks

You'd be better off asking/looking in the forum for the 958 generation of Cayennes (your car is a 958), I'm sure you'd find people who have lowered their cars there. Here's a link: https://rennlist.com/forums/cayenne-958-2011-2018-242/

I'm interested as well in lowering our 9y0. It's a beautiful car, but needs to lose some of the gap in the wheel wells. We have a base with 21" wheels so I think with some springs and spacers, it could look a little more aggressive. I put the H&R springs on our last 958 Diesel Cayenne and it made the ride a bit stiffer, it also had some bigger aftermarket wheels so I think that made a big difference as well. Any more pictures of lowered Cayennes? There can't just be one on all of rennlist!?!?

Something looks off on the above GTS. The rear end looks like it is sagging with zero gap while the front has some gap. My GTS doesn't sit like that.

I saw that too and to me it looks like he's parked on somewhat of a hill so I just attributed it to that. My driveway has the slightest of inclines and even that makes my cars sit a little off.

I think it may actually be lower in the rear, this post early in the thread is why I say that. It's also why I've been off the idea of using them, it would drive me batty if the car didn't look level.

anyone else add H&R or Techart Springs to a 2019-2022?

I have the base suspension with 21" wheels and would love to see what the settled look may be as well as ride/handling reviews. In seeing some of the notes on bump-stops and recalibration, any other feedback would be really helpful.

thank you!

I am just trying to get some better handling out of the base model since I find it to have a bit too much body roll when driving around town. Open to other ideas, but swapping springs seemed to be the easiest and most cost efficient way to accomplish the goal.

While I would love to have had PASM on the car, I purchased it pre-owned. can anyone further elaborate on their experience/pictures/etc with spring swaps on base suspension?

Thank you!

Anymore photos with H&R springs? Having a hard time finding anymore online.

Is the white car a base model with H&R springs? Why does it look different than the gray turbo? Curious to see how much lower the rear is than the front.
