suspension springs S12

If you want to get good starts its better to have softer rear springs to aid weight transfer to the rear wheels. If your into DORIIIIIIIIIIFTING you wont want to do that though.

i think front std springs are 166.3 lbs and rears are 177.5 lbs, it also says that the left side springs are longer than the right, front and rear. is this because of the camber of the road.

Na its coz they're not the same weight side to side.

so if i get a set made up, do i really need to worry bout left to right difference???

and if i get say 450lbs for the front, and 400lbs for the rear, that is better for power starts (thats how i read you post, forgive me if im wrong), im not into drifting in any way, i like my 4 wheels stuck to the ground.

thats what i'am thinking of, any idea what lenght the rear springs would have to be, if your using 400lbs rear, obviously shorter than the avo ones which are about 10 inch.

We dont really have anything here to reference too Im guessing they would sag less under the cars weight if they were stronger. I suppose its trial and error.Il let umpkin be the ginue pig then il make my decision.I dont want my car looking like a 4x4

Even shorter springs would mean that the rear end would probably need to be strapped using old seat belt or something so that the springs dont fall out when you jack it up

Have you found somewhere that custom winds springs then?
