The H&R Sport Springs for the 981 Boxster and Cayman lower the car’s ride height and sharpen handling by reducing body roll and lowering the center of gravity. With a progressive spring‑rate design and high‑quality spring steel, they deliver sportier cornering, improved stability, and a more aggressive stance — all while preserving everyday ride comfort. Ideal for owners who want their 981 to handle sharper, look better, and feel more planted without sacrificing street usability.
Designed for Porsche 981 Boxster and 981 Cayman (model years 2012–2016).
Works with cars equipped with either standard suspension or PASM — springs are compatible across trim/options.
Lowers ride height by roughly 1.0 inch front & rear for Boxster, and 1.2″ front / 1.3″ rear for Cayman — giving a lower center of gravity and tighter stance.
Four (4) progressive‑rate coil springs (front & rear) crafted for the 981 platform.
Front lowering: ~ 1.0″ (Boxster), ~ 1.2″ (Cayman)
Rear lowering: ~ 1.0″ (Boxster), ~ 1.3″ (Cayman)
Spring type: Progressive‑rate coil springs — softer at small travel (for street comfort), firming up under load (for handling).
Material: 54SiCr6 high‑tensile spring steel, shot‑peened and stress‑relieved for durability and long life.
Lower Center of Gravity & Reduced Body Roll — Decreasing ride height improves cornering stability, reduces body lean during lateral acceleration, and enhances driver confidence on twisty roads.
Sportier Stance & Improved Aesthetics — The lowered ride height tightens up fender gaps for a more aggressive, performance‑oriented appearance.
Progressive Spring Rate for Balanced Comfort & Performance — Soft initial rate smooths out regular road imperfections, while increasing stiffness under load maintains control and reduces squat/dive under hard driving.
Durable, Premium Construction — Built from high‑quality spring steel, shot‑peened and tested according to strict standards to ensure longevity and consistent performance.
Direct Fit & OEM‑Compatibility — Designed to bolt into 981 suspension using existing mounts and components — no special modifications or part swaps required.
Improved Aerodynamics & Efficiency — Lower ride height slightly reduces frontal area and drag, which may contribute to marginal improvements in stability and efficiency (especially at higher speeds) — an added bonus to performance and looks.
