Why is RACE not available from H&R?

To my knowledge H&R has always offered Sport & Race springs for all their applications. Why is it that for the new M3, they only offer Sport.

Will they eventually come out with Race? Maybe they had a problem with developing the Race Springs to work with EDC?

Any insight guys?

I think H&R sports are more than enough for the m3

You don't want to use Race springs with stock dampers. They will come out with them when they have matched dampers or coilovers.

Spoke to H&R today on the phone, I was told they are not planning on developing the Race Springs YET. Right now they are offering Sport Springs ONLY, and Full Coilovers of course.

However, he did say that if they had enough calls/e-mails/inquiries that they would highly consider making the Race springs for us! So if you want 'em....start calling/e-mailing/inquiring!!
