Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
I have these and I love them! Highly recommend to anyone who just wants to drop it a little without digging into the suspension too much. You get a lower car with lower center of gravity while ride comfort remains almost the same. :D
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Thanks for the review -- we sold another set of these this weekend 8)
Nice Aveo, let us know if you want to make her a bit more aggressive with some UR bars :D

I`ve never had a dropped vehicle before.
After one is dropped, do you ever experience bottoming out or fender well rubbing of the tires?
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
the h&r dont go low enough to rub with wheels and tires in the stock dimension ranges..
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Bottoming out hasn't been an issue yet either. The car is only 1.5 inch lower. Even at that height it still sits higher than most sports cars are stock if you're keeping stock bumpers and not adding side skirts. I try to avoid driving up very steep driveways with my set up if I can avoid it. Having taller rear bumper still allows me to drive up those driveways if needed front first if I'm careful.
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Almost all the cars I've owned have been lowered. Its never been a problem, not even in the winter.
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Thanks - just saw this question. But that is correct, you should be fine. A little bit more careful with inclines, but definitely shouldn't be an issue. :D
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
No problems with speedbumps?
What would be needed for an Aveo to be lowered?
New coils and shocks?
Any links to products?
Thanks a bunch!
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
it all depends on how low you want to go and the cost.

Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
224 is over priced. I got mine a few months back from ebay for under 200 shipped brand new. I dunno about other peoples feeling but im tired of new vendors popping in from time to time selling something that I can find at a dozen other places. Why cant a vendor come in selling something thats not already all over the internet. For example like a turbo kit or performance exhaust and so on.
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Maybe if people showed interest in vendor's products that might cost a little more, those vendors would be more inclined to go find more parts for our cars. If you keep going to the lowest bidder I can guarantee they'll never do such things, and eventually they'll just forget about the whole Aveo scene.
I've seen it happen many times. A great example of this is Hotshot. They were a company that used to make headers. Then, OBX (a Chinese company) stole their header designs (literally exact duplicates), made them in China and put them out of business because they could sell them cheaper. There was a lawsuit, but suing Chinese companies is pretty futile and very costly. Now, there is no more Hotshot to design headers for new cars. Of course there are still other header companies out there that you could go to, but whats to stop OBX from doing it to them? The answer is your money. You don't pay them, they don't make money. Is it more expensive? Heck yeah it is. But, IMO thats what it costs. Also where there is interest in products, more products will be made because there is money there. Is OBX going to design your next product? Only if they can copy it from someone else who has already done the work.
Basically, if you don't help them out, you aren't gonna get any help back. Lots of people complain about not having parts, this is why. Modding cars isn't cheap, especially for less popular vehicles where you don't have hundreds of people buying the same part. Thats just the way it is. Support the people who support you.
So, thats my rant on why finding the cheapest products isn't usually the best thing to do.

i dont mind spending a little extra to buy from a good vender, most people do not want to touch the the aveo anyways because it is a daewoo or a GM car, which makes it harder to get anything done, or the lack of people who want to buy anything to begin with
start up some group buys, im in lol
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Your talking about headers made from two different companys. I understand all that but I bought the same exact springs hes selling for a lower price. Its not like I bought a knock off or anything. I would buy it from throwdown if he made them but he didnt hes just buying parts already made and slinging them for a lil more money. Will I see anything custom from him 99% no. I myself have been working on a cheap turbo kit for everyone for the past 3 months that bolts to the stock header and the turbo sits where the stock cat is. I have to brush it aside for now because my aveo ticks pretty bad when facing down hill or hard breaking. But anyways im just hijacking a thread I will stop my rant.
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
Understand your frustration. A few things just to note: We will price match and if possible beat our competitors pricing without a problem. One thing to note tho, is that many of these companies you speak or are not authorized to sell those products, price below they are allowed to, or are just dumping inventory as there is a limited aveo market. Just contact us with any questions and we'd be more than happy to work with you on anything like that 8)
As was mentioned, the Aveo market is extreme niche. With the economy many companies are hesitant to produce products for cars other than mainstream mod machines (Evos, STI's, etc) due to demand. Unfortunately it's tough to get new products made for the Aveo unless there really was greater demand, but we are always keeping our ear to the ground for not only new items, but items that you guys may have not heard before.
We are here for you guys, so please let us know if we can help. And if you see better pricing on something, just let us know about it and we'd be happy to try to help you out! As a company, we are not only known for our customer service and our fast delivery, we are known for our pricing as well!
Re: <<< H&R Sport Springs @ Throwdown Performance!!!
There are parts out there for the aveo in plenty, you just need to go international to find them. Its not that the aveo is so much "niche", just mostly in america. Internationally, these cars are very popular due to different countries economic statuses, emisions standards, living conditions, road conditions, etc, etc... I believe I saw this on the daewoo board:
Cheap, fast, reliable. Pick 2, you cant have the third. Most people want cheap and fast while hoping for reliable. good luck.

I want fast and reliable while hoping for the cheap.. ;)
