I currently have a set of coilovers on the front, and am looking at upgrading the tortion bars on the rear to VTS ones, should I increase the front springs to balance this out?Front springs are 250lb as standard ________________________________________ Spanner Monkeys Monkey SpannerForum Search Clicky |

Not bein funny but it depends what else ur using with it all, I mean I'm running 21mm tbs on my track car with a 30 mm arb and 325 lb springs up front on coilovers and mine don't understeer and feels really balanced.... I think really u can't just compare spring rates it's the whole package. ________________________________________ Team Running Engine again!Team Negative Camber! My Budget track engine build thread!

250lbs is soft, my GAZ units blew through all their travel and went coilbound when I ran 250 lbs springs.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.
