Hello..I'm looking to lower my 07 H3 with some springs.To me the rear on the truck is too high. I'm gettin 24inch rims installed soon and want to have the "nice" look to my truck with it being lowered. That said I really havent found much springs for an 07 h3 that lowers much..one i found,Ground Force it says lowers the front 2inches and the rear 3inches..That's perfect for me i believe..Here is the link for them..Please tell me if this is all I would need to lower the truck?? Thanks

You could always raise your front to match the rear! It's the easiest thing to do! Or you can lower it.

Good lowering...


And Bad lowering....



Just IMHO man.

Yeah, that's why I lowered mine. I've seen some H2's with 24's NOT LOWERED, and I wasn't a fan!!

I'm with Impy on this one .. I don't understand why one would do that ... seems like an awful waste of a perfectly good "go-anywhere-cuz-I'm-a-badass" kind of vehicle .. but each to his or her own .. done the same look on an Avalanche and loved it .. but never to a Hummer .. there's a heritage to maintain here :-)

The green H3 is Photoshopped.

Pay attention to radius of the wheel. It just isn't possible.

Can I ask why did you get 24's in the 1st place? Was these wheels givin to you for FREE? I'm just wondering because it doesn't make much sense to have a fully capable 4x4 truck riding on so much chrome. Unless you chose to lower it and like that look than it's cool but if you haven't received the rims yet I would suggest you go get some 17's and mud grapplers and make it look like a real rig ;)

Just FYI, from what I've heard from my buddies at the dealership they said lowered Hummers break more often than stock or lifted hummers - well that's if you're not like me who wheel the crap out of my H3

Good luck lowering it - post some pics when finish!

This is my first post here but I have wanted to say this to Hummer owners for a long time.  I am not trying to piss anyone off here just voice my opinion and maybe get some help around here.

I am a lowrider Street type Truck guy and I love seeing an H2 slammed.  The reason being is because I think the H2 has great Sport/Street truck lines, especially the SUT.  I know many of you will not agree with me, but that is ok.  I am not a 4 x 4 or offroad fan, not that there is anything wrong with it.  It just isn't my thing.  

I just like that looks of the H2 Hummer body and would suit my needs as a lowrider even though that sounds totally rediculous.  It is just something different. But if I did lowere one it would probably be a salvaged H2 so I could use the body and change the frame so it would be a 2 wheel drive unit only. 

As far as lowering the H3, you may have to do a lot of measuring and maybe some cutting depending on how much gap you want between your fenders and wheels.

Peace.
