Last chance to lowball me before they go to eBay!


*Price drop! $140 OBO

I switched back to stock springs and no longer need these. These are the H&R Racing Springs for NB Miatas, model number 29487-1. They give you a pretty significant drop: final ride height is 11.5 inches in the front and rear, measured from the fender to the center of the wheel hub.

Here is a pic of my car with these springs on 15x7 wheels with 205/50/15 tires:

Comes with the box and original paperwork.

$170 + shipping (or local pickup in Tampa, FL) or best offer. Thanks for reading!

Hey Jim,

I called H&R and they told me 320 front, 275 rear.

Thanks Gerry. I couldn't find the rates online. Did you run these on stock shocks? Stock top hats?

Wasabi, Seeing how you own an NA, I think you'll need to get NB shocks as well to run these. The way the springs mount to the shocks is different on both models. I may be wrong, but you might wanna double check. (not trying to kill a sale)

Thanks etikoner, I appreciate your tip, and you are correct, the springs sit differently from NA to NB. I have three sets of '99 NB Sport Bilsteins and was curious how these spring rates might work with the stock setup. I also didn't know if there was much difference between these (black) springs and the red ones that are part of the Ground Control package. I know you can get different spring rates with the GC, but they are $$$ and are too short to run on stock shocks.

Sorry for the slow reply; it's hard to keep track of 10 forums. LOL!

The springs were run on KYB AGX shocks with stock top hats and short (in my case, cut) bump stops. I successfully ticked off a lot of people in autocross with that setup ;)

Those Bilsteins are supposed to be way better than the KYB's that I have, so I'd say it's probably okay.

I run these springs on my cars stock bilstiens and I am very happy with the set up. I did upgrade the factory bump stops when I did it. GLWS
