Default WTB H&R sport springs

My car is too low right now, I need to raise it up just a little. I dont want to buy brand new if I dont have too so Im looking for some H&R sport springs or any other brand with a similar drop.

Thanx

If it's too low what do you have in there? H & R Race springs?

Someone told me they were but too be honest with you I dont know. I bought the car like that here in Italy about a year ago, the springs are purple. I can show you some picks of the drop if you want.

If those are H & R race springs (which they aound like they are), i would be intreseted in purchasing them as long as shipping prices permitted. Also why was it too low? For your tastes, ride quality or you just had problems navigating the car over speed bumps, or all the above?

The sport springs are purple.

Race springs are red.

You have sport springs, so you probably don't want to buy another set, eh?

Also Stock Mtechs are .06 F/R. I find them suitable for AutoX, Road Course(Sebring/Gainesville) and normal driving on poor road surfaces.
