    Gonna help some people out here who may have questions in the future. The Pro-Kit will give you the height of a Scat Pack. However, it won't really look perfect until you run bigger tires (275s in the front, at LEAST a 295 in the rear to get that beautiful stance). They give you the dropped look without the dropped consequences. The Sportlines will look exactly like the H&Rs so it doesn't really matter there, but you may rub the tires after it completely settles. To be honest on the Sportlines or H&Rs, going bigger than 275 is pushing it but I've seen 305s done. Whenever you mess with your shocks, struts, springs, camber etc., an alignment is recommended ESPECIALLY if you go Sportlines. Now here's where it gets a little wild. On the R/Ts and below, the regular R/Ts that are not the PLUS package, you get pretty shitty shocks and struts. They're baseline good enough to get by testing. The Pro Kit will be fine with them. However, if you want to apply the H&Rs or Sportlines on Non-plus models, you may potentially wear out your shocks/struts prematurely because they cannot handle that spring rate. On the R/T Plus models, we get Bilstein shocks which are the better ones that aren't top of the line but can handle the Sportlines / H&Rs even better. So if you don't have a Plus model R/T, I don't ever recommend using the Sportlines / H&Rs unless you plan to swap the suspension out completely anyway.

    Bro, this is actually my favorite stance I've seen so far.. A blend of stance and practicality. Not having to worry about every bump, etc.
    Just ordered a scat and this is probably what I'll go with. You're a smart man. 👍

      I mean if you have a scat getting these is kinda pointless. You'll be sitting at almost the same height as a scat comes from factory. These are moreso for people who want the scat stance.

      @@JennyCaldas0506 that price actually should include an alignment. But yes you gonna need a wheel alignment, but if you going no with the prokit, you can wait til it settle. But if you go lower for example sport line Elba has springs. Get it as soon as possible....

      Jason Rico that’ll depend on your car. Mine no bounce., but that will depend on the wear and tear of you suspension. But you should have any bounce.
