Look for some recommendations.
Stock 914-6 with stock T bars, front 22mm H&H Swaybar - adjustable, and rear spring rate of ?????? I was thinking 170. Shocks are all Bilstien Sports, springs are 2.25" size so I can pick most any rate I want including variables, just not sure what to run on a street drive 914-6. |

What kind of rear suspension action are you looking for?
Sport or soft? What are the road conditions that you are on the most? I have a 4cyl water cooled conversion@ 2200 lbs and use 225lb springs and like them. Good for most roads, but they do sacrifice compliance on the rough stuff. I would put these in the sport category, but very tolerable for long distance drives. BTW my tires are 205/55/16's. |
