How Many Spring Pads can i stack up?

[CHAMBMW]

my car is lowered with H&R sports...rear end drop is too low...how many spring pads can i stack to raise it up a bit. is 2 15mm on each side okay?

for those of you who stacked up a few pads, what difference did it make? was it noticeable?

i also have Koni SA's..i have it set at medium soft...does that affect ride height?

I asked about this earlier. I think 2 was the answer (not two plus the stock, just 2). I don't think the come in 15, just 5, 7, 10.

so did u end up putting 2 10mm? did it help at all? i don't want to waste my time and money if its not worth seeing a difference. thanks

I had the same problem with the H&Rs...I stacked two new 10mm pads (part #33 531 1 136 387) and they brought the rear end up to an acceptable height...

I haven't done it. It only bothers me when I have a full trunk. When empty, the stance is sick and everyone loves it. However, I'm running 225s on 17in rims. I'm worried about getting wider tires in there.

By the way, your shocks will have nothing to do with ride height.

You guys must be referring to the newer H&R Sports colored red as the older gray ones didn't lower the car enough. Seems there is no happy meduim with the H&R springs.

It sounds like your car's not too low. Consider stacking the stock pad with a 10mm pad. You can click my link to see some pic's.

I'm amazed that people continue to buy H&R sports given the tremendous amount of problems reported on this board.

I got mine cheap used and they do fine. Truthfully I wanted Eibachs but they were back ordered EVERYWHERE and I didn't want to wait.
