Quality of ride and handling is up for debate. Whatever a person thinks depends largely on what they expect out of springs. I'm just going to let you know some facts, then my opinion.
Facts: Obviously it lowers the vehicle. It definitely makes the ride stiffer. Body roll is virtually eliminated etc.
My Opinions: It was a temporary solution. It is too stiff for my expectations. I don't like the idea of less shock travel room to achieve good looks.... but being the only option at the time, it was a must have for me. For the price it is a great value. But it reminded me of poor man solutions to Honda Civics back in the 90s.
So basically, if you enjoy a stiffer ride because it gives you more confidence while you rip through the turns, then H&R springs are an inexpensive way to achieve that enjoyment. Me, I just want a stock ride with a lowered look.
