180 pound progressive springs., Pros and Cons? Options

[steveherman]

My car is bone stock from front to rear.
I am looking at 180lb progressive springs.

-are these stock height?

-if not what do i have to do to the front end to make the front height match the rear height?

-will i need a bump steer kit?

-will i need to do any other mods to make them look "right"?

-being that they are "progressive" they are gonna be pretty decent for all types of driving... right?

thanks

The "progressive" springs I used to run ( I believe they were 160's) weren't really progressive. There were 3 coils at one end that were wound tighter than the rest and when the car was on the ground those three coils would compress and go solid. They were simply acting as a spacer and didn't effect the spring rate at all. So if you wanted to lower the car a little you could remove one or two of those coils to lower the car and still keep the same spring rate. You can sort of check this by feeling the coil spacing when the car is setting on the ground, or you can see it if the solid coils are installed at the bottom. FWIW
