I loved the way the eibach pro-kit looked on my Z. Anybody know when Eibach is suppose to have a kit coming out for the HHR?

There is already two out. They have both pro and sport setups.

I spoke to Eibach last week and they said a newer kit that's better suited to the HHR is due out in early Feb. Also a sway bar kit about the same time.

At the rate GM is delivering the HHRs the timing should be good! ;-(

The sportlines were to low for my Camaro,, even with the pro kit my driveshaft loop and torque arm mount hit the ground on most speed bumps and steep driveways. I'll have to look into the pro-kit for the HHR, don't think I'll be able to squeeze a 20 under it with the sport lines.

When I did my mustang I went with the Mach 1 setup because it only dropped me like a 1/2 an inch to a inch. I never actualy took mesurements but you could tell the difference sitting next to the stock suspension.

I think I should lower it first, that way I can see how much room I actually do have, so I can choose a set of wheels.

Wise choice there. I would hate to spend a ton for rims and then find out that there are clearance issues later.

I think it is gonna be tight for what I want to do. I may end up doing a mini-tub in the rear.

Some 10" - 12" wide rims in back would sure look nice. Too bad the HHR isn't RWD.

Thats the look I want, like a 295 in the rear with a deep wheel that has a bright chrome or polished lip. No way I'm going to be able to pull that off, but a 245 may fit.
