should be fine. weight at the front or in the trunk makes a difference as well.

all springs settle a little differently. some a little more some a little less. boo's h&r's settle quite a bit too. guess you guys just got lucky....shouldnt be anything to worry about.

Plenty of guys here have H & R springs. You shouldn't scrape the muffler since the drop is only 1.3" even if some people sit in the back. The sedans have a slight sag in the back because the springs were actually designed for coupes, but like newkid, he's fixed the sag by installing Koni Yellow adjustable shocks to raise the tail up a bit.

I've dropped approx. 3.25" and have never scraped my muffler except on some insanely slanted driveways like at a gas stations or poorly constructed locations.
