I've had mine on for about 6 months. Stance looks great. Perfect drop. I did notice the ride is bouncier but other than that, feels like stock springs.

I've been on the HR 550's for about 2 years with zero issues. Like someone else mentioned a little bit of rebound but nothing crazy.

It also worked well with the Comp set-up, effectively eliminating some of the harshness of the OEM springs.

Can you share some pics pls of how.muxh wheel gap is left? I am Debating the mss adjustable springs but doubt I will ever actually adjust them.

Comfort and eliminating wheel gap is my main priority.

Base m5 with hr m550 springs. Car was so much better handling, feel, etc with these springs. A little bouncier, but no less comfortable than stock...in most situations, was actually more comfortable for me.

Lowered pic car has spacers.
