I use to daily my R with HA's. So far Ive driven 30,000 miles with them on.
No problem here. I liked how it handled and you can always set settings to handle daily driving if you want. I also live in cali where the raods are not as harsh like in some other states.

HA's are fine for daily drivers. I woudl definitely NOT use pillow ball mounts.

The HA's don't ride as well as some other higher end suspensions like the Zeal B6 and JIC FLTA2 but definitely a good setup IMO.

I have Trey's old HA's on my del sol now... At first, I loved them, but the more I got used to them, the more and more I dislike them.
I mainly use my car for autoX and daily driving on 15x7 azeni's, so I think I'm a good example for you. I'd look into something else as well.

As for the flt-a2's, i've heard bad reviews from the rcrew guys.... they aren't impressed by them at all.

my next setup? Something for an M3

I have HAs on my R...I used to DD it, and still drive it ~ day a week commuting in crappy Atlanta traffic. They do just fine as DD. They dont seem any stiffer than stock shocks when I have them set to "1" (softest setting). Ive been very pleased with them so far (~1 year).

BTW, the HAs have been discontinued for the ITR for awhile now, thats why you havent been able to find a place that sells them. Offer me a ridiculous amount for mine, Ill sell em

Don't you mean discontinued

if you really want some here is a number you might want to call. I think they can get you a set brand new maybe, not sure though.13103201370
