No problems/issues with my H&R Coil Overs. Contact your dealer & H&R. Warranty.

I thought highest in the rear was close to stock sport suspension height?

Lower .75" from normal suspension. I wrong about that?

Just call H&R..if you are original owner..they will replace free of charge

You have to pay to get them installed though.

Wow. We're talking mm's here.

H&R drop specs are;

<i>1.2 - 2.2" Front & .75 - 1.7" Rear from OEM "Standard" suspension. Subtract any lowering offered in a factory Sport option</i>.

So at the highest setting, they would be 1.2" F and .75" R lower then OEM Non-Sport suspension height.
