I have access to a lift if we would need it.

The factory cam bolt can adjust .5 degree. So the hr springs put you 1in lower
so you might be @ 1.5 degree a good angle for increase corner grip. You might
see a little extra wear but not much.

Everyone tells me that Turn In Concepts should install them on my MINI.  They
are a great shop.  I would also work with TD Performance in Fairfield.   Do you
need a camber kit if you lower a stock MINI?  I know when I lowered my Civic
with just springs my tire wear was horribly uneven.

You don't really need adjustable lower control arms with the drop most springs offered for MINIs. You might hit 1 degree for every inch lower you go. The factory cam bolt can adjust .5 degree. So the hr springs put you 1in lower so you might be @ 1.5 degree a good angle for increase corner grip. You might see a little extra wear but not much.

Hi all, I am thinking about lower my 09 MCS with H&R sports spring and looking
for reputable shop in Cincy area, any input will be appreciated. Also what's the
labor cost and how long does it take.

Thanks,
Richard

I met some guy at a party and he tried to sell me the wheels that he'd
had on his MINI. (Yes, it was that kind of party.)

Unfortunately I'm not in the market for new wheels (yet), so I'm passing
along the savings to you.

I can send anyone who's interested pictures of the actual wheels, or you
can just email or call him.
