    Ideas Spring rubbers

    I am planning on putting some h&r sprins with Bilstein H.D.'s on my ix.
    TMS sells a kit for this.

    I was wondering should i get the sport shocks. I herd the H&R springs only lowers the car only 1 inch so is it worth getting them. and are the sports any stiffer. i herd there just shorter.

    also i have an idea for when when winter hits, is to add 1 inch spring rubbers made out lexan or somthing like that... i havent check into it much.. i know some 4x4 kids do it. and if i added that there prolly woulnt be much reason for sport shocks cuz it would expand them to far maybe....

    what do you guys think?

    you can't get front bilstein sports for an ix.

    my car dropped about 1.5-1.7 inches with the H&R sports. I wouldn't want to use them with Bilstein HDs, unless you like to bottom out your suspension all the time (which means a bad ride, and blown out struts). konis are the only way to go..
