What size wheels can I fit? Group: Members Posts: 4,645 Joined: 5-April 05 From: Scottsdale, AZ Member No.: 3,881 Region Association: Southwest Region |
I just had new 140#springs put on my car and it sits higher than it did before. I'm told it is because my old springs were sagging when compared to the new ones. I have KYB gas adjust shocks on it. Any one have any ideas on what it takes to get the back end down to reasonable height? I was told to cut the springs but I would hate to do that to a brand new pair. Seems sorta like a half-assed way to fix the problem.
You can see how it sits if you go to my blog. |

Michael,
I just took a peek at your blog and photos of your car, very nice! Adjustable perches with springs run around $250 (www.paragon-products.com), the springs are included and replacements in other sizes are pretty cheap ($60). They have them for Bilsteins and Koni shocks, I am not sure about the KYB's - that will depend on if the lower perches can be removed and the diameter of the shock body. I have koni sports and the adjustable perches, I love them. |
