I've got 180 Weltmeisters and Bilsteins out back which work pretty well BUT the back end of the car is somewhat higher than I would like. If I lower it down, the springs move on their perches. Are there helper springs for Weltmeister springs?

If not, what are my choices?

1. Wire the spring to the upper perch?

2. Wire the spring to the lower perch?

3. Get a custom spring setup with helper springs and higher rate main springs "while I'm in there"

Thanks and Happy New Year! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I don't know of any option for Weltmeister springs. As for coilover setups, I liked the Paragon Products kit that I had. However, if your goal is to go up in spring rate it would mean buying an extra set of springs as they sell it with 200lb Hypercoils. Unfortunately I just sold my kit to a member here. However, I have an extra set of helpers that I'll send you for the price of shipping if you chose to go that route. I also have a nice front sway for sale in the classifieds section.
