Ok, gota 350 in the backyard, other stuff coming. The question, What are you guys using for your spring rates for the rear suspension? I was thinkin 200 would be nice.. Would 180 still give me a plenty stiff ride? I would like a solid and stiff ride.. I have 140's on the back currently, and I know I will need to go more.. But how much?
I dont need to worry about my front, I have my sway bar set as low as it can go, and I still understeer. Thanks guys. Andrew |

I rode in a v8 car and it had 180 lb springs.. seemed a touch stiffer than stock, and probably about as stiff as I'd want to go for a daily driver... so I bought some. I'll let you know in a year or so how it works out (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
