i have had BOTH H&R then recently went to the SRT8 Eibachs.
H&R leaves about an inch in the front and rear HOWEVER there is very little noticeable in ride difference from stock. I ran the H&R with WK bilsteins it RODE PERFECT.
BUT I WANTED MORE......so
I recently switched to the SRT8 Eibachs. In front I still have my WK bilsteins; in rear i have the SRT8 QA1 adjustables.
The ride is definitely sacrficed lots. I have the rears on 6 out of 20 setting and I have not bottomed out or slammed the rear. I have banged 2-3 times in the front and a few other near bangs. Also with the limited travel there is a small BOP; its much better with the QA1 but still not perfect.
I MAY try to take my front H&R and cut one coil off.
Yea I was affraid the ride would be to stiff since its an everyday driver. Put new rancho ultra's on, ride is perfect not to stiff drags a little over big speed bumps but have only driven from the shop back to work.
Thanks ya'll...Jeep looks great man! I wanted to buy a WK that already had the H&Rs on it but had a Jeep to trade in and missed it. It looked perfect. I bet yours settles in a bit.
NEWB ALERT - What the heck are WK Bilsteins (I know what Bilsteins are...)? Stock shocks?
theers two Bilsteins shocks availabale for the WK platform...the aftermarket Bilsteins that folks here calll the WK Bilsteins and the OEM SRT8 Jeep Bilsteins. The Jeep SRT8 Bilsteins are the BEST by far IMO of the two.....but are very pricey,

I have the H&R Sport Springs on mine too, but I have 22" wheels so it fills the wheel well a little better, I would have liked it a half an inch lower in the rear, but I can live with it.
Not sure bro got so many projects going on...lol still gota install the spyder HID's that I heated and ripped apart to paint that damn ugly amber light... and looking to buy and work a 2010 camaro ss soon... did the springs more for look than drive... love these jeeps man always will...
I got totally hammered on the labor not sure the exact amount but I have to check. Im out here in tennesse on business for a year and there isnt much around here.
