Looking to use SS/SC springs in the rear, and want to lower the front as well. Does anyone know how much it lowers, if any at all? Or should I grab some HHR SS springs for front? Thanks!

My question specifically relates to the front springs, not the rear. Some say ss/sc spring lower the front of HHR 1in, while others claim it actually raises the suspension. And HHR SS fronts lower .5in from what I understand. Just checking for confirmation, as many of those topics were a few years old.

my mistake..

Depends which struts, how far they will lower it, fe3 struts with fe5 springs.

I'm agree with SS fan on this.

Plus. You're first post doesn't say what year and suspension you have now.
Mixing and matching a setup is usually a trial and error thing.
I know others have done it, but sometimes the posted info wasn't very accurate. The SC and TC spring usage info seemed to get mixed up by some.

I will be running all new Kyb gr2 struts, so I assume fe3.

Sorry, didn't mean any disrespect. Didn't realize how grumpy I sound late at night!

Decision is a pain as if I buy a set of ss/sc springs and the front doesn't lower any, it'll be too low in the front with my stereo in the rear. So I'll have to remove all the springs and get the ss/tc. May look for a pair off HHR SS fronts, as it seems like they'd atleast get me 1/2'' lower in the front, although I'm not sure if that's enough to justify the cost.
