In my case, the first speed bump. First test drive. Look how close the coils are.

I did not want to make a stink about it but its BS that pedders can't respond In a timely manner. I was told by another member to give it more time which I will since I have no other choice.
1 member (for sure) on this forum has new design springs from pedders. It fixes this issue.

Again, 95%+ of members will never have an issue with Pedders, it is a very isolated group that had issues. If you would have any product issues, Pedders will resolve this if you contact them (call them, ask for Deb).

thanks
So...getting back to the actual question...
I have the Pro-Kit installed on mine. No complaints. They ride really good and I have hauled a very heavy gas generator and other things in the back for hundreds of miles (single trip) and it wasn't riding on the bump-stops. It only bottomed out on sudden dips in the interstate.

Just my $0.02.

Correct, there is nothing wrong with the Pro kit.

A year ago Eibach installed on my HHR their redesigned their new sway bar, and kept my HHR overnight to redesign their rear springs for the HHR, they offered to install the new ones on my HHR but since I had mine lowered for a year with another Companys springs I didnt take them on their offer.
