Mgavin1985 Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 If one were to purchase H & R lowering Spring once installed did you have any issue with the cars camber when doing the wheel alignment after install? Will a camber kit be needed. And did it cause you ant premature wear in rest of front end suspension? Greatly appreciate the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autom8r Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Mgavin, One has had his H&R Springs on his Edge for the last 100k miles. A new camber bolt set will be required. One has not had any problems with camber or alignment. In fact, the alignment has held really well. My Edge now has 190k on it. It may need new bushings soon, but the tires do not show any strange alignment or wear anomolies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Champagne Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 I have a pair of H&R springs for sale. they were on my wifes car for 6 yrs. I'm located in Michigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autom8r Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Mgavin, I bought the kit from Amazon or Ebay and a set of camber bolts. Genuine H&R. Took the kit to my independent tire shop business and he installed them while I watched. Immediately went to the [Hunter] alignment rack and set up the alignment. Regretfully I don't have pictures, 100k is a long way back in the rearview mirror. The springs make the car handle much better, though a little too stiff in the beginning. But after 100k miles they're seasoned just right (or I am). What's nice is that the car is at the right height, you kinda fall right into the driver's seat. Tom Champagne has some springs for sale. I'd think about those, it'll give you a head start on the seasoning. If you can find one, a Steeda anti-roll bar is also a nice addition. Steeda made these for the Gen1, and I think it fits on the Gen2 too. Happy trails 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
