H&R has a reputation for creating quality suspension components. The H&R Sport Cup Kit is designed for the tuner that wants an aggressive lowered height but still daily drives the vehicle. It has an average lowering rate of 2.0 inches, which is an aggressive lowering height. But this kit also focuses on comfort. Although it may be an extremely low height, but due to the careful matching of the spring and struts, H&R Sport Cup Kits are still able to preserve a comfortable ride that is not too harsh for the daily driver. As with any modification to a vehicle height there will be a decrease in ride quality but the Sport Cup Kit will attempt to minimize these losses as much as possible.
Each H&R cup kit is made to specifically fit each car application. In each H&R cup kit, the struts are specifically valved to be compatible with the springs they come with and the springs are specifically made with a spring rate that is compatible with the struts. This ensure the best compatibility for your car and quick bolt-on installation.

Product Notes: There is a mid year change in the size of the top of the front springs. Please check to see which tops are in your car. Open the hood and look at the top of the struts. If the struts have a black plastic cap this should indicate that you have the large spring top, use part number 54764, 54715-88, 31016-1 or 31016T-1. If there is a round metal top with rubber around it and no plastic cap you should have the smaller spring end, use part number 54748, 54748-88, 31016-2 or 31016T-2.
