I just swapped out my 180lbs rears for a used set of H&R 250lbs springs...I was lifting the inside front tire and I wanted a little more in the back to help....

anyway...the car feels GREAT with the spring change (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) the funny thing is, the rear end is now about 3/4" higher and I reset the ride height in the front to keep the rake I had before. Seat of the pants says it's turning better. Could I have had it too low before? Anyone have the opitimum ride height for a track/AX only car with 15" slicks?

I didn't think I had it slammed like a ricer...but come to think of it...it was pretty far down there....

Thanks in advance for the help.
