      A lot people will say no but, trim a coil off the front. I'm running the same suspension on my iX and with a coil off the front it looks WAY better. I've had no issues.

        with stock springs or H&R sports? the sports are already a bit too low for their spring rate and available travel. H&R pretty much pushed it to the edge on that one.

          I did it to my H&R's, its perfect. It's just little bit lower in front, I'm pretty happy with it.

            Ehhh...I really just wanted to go slightly lowered, not slammed. I use the car in the winter and I don't want the nose doing plow duty

              the first few coils are dead anyway. All you're really doing is decreasing travel. His roads must be smooth as glass. :)
