                  Raceland coilovers
                  Spring Rate:
                  Front – 375
                  Rear – 295
                  (HATE the spring rate, any ideas where i could get stiffer, maybe shorter, springs?)
                  i can still go lower in the front but i have to cut the original spring perch off. the back im going to take the adjusters out to be a bit lower too.

                  tell me what you think!

                        I wonder why they choose to run a stiffer front rate than back , like 90 percent of e30 setups I've seen run a allot stiffer rear spring than front spring

                          not sure but it actually sucks. like the height is good but its way to soft, do you know where i could get stiffer ones that would fit...?

                            Do you know what size springs they used, you can get new springs from hypercoil, (eibach though ground control) and swift all make good springs

                              they are progressive springs, if that helps?

                                Actually doesn't ride that bad, a little bouncy on fast harsh bumps. I've definitely rode in worse
                                It's my daily driver I'm happy with it
