    Raceland Coilovers

    Has anyone tried the Raceland coilovers on an E30 yet? I know alot of E36 and E46 guys run them and just noticed that they added the E30 to the lineup. They claim the front is 375lb/in and the rear is 295lb/in which I thought was kind of strange since every other spring I have seen for the E30 is stiffer in the rear than the front.

    Who gives a shit? If you're buying racelands your primary concern certainly isn't handling.

      My buddy just installed the racelands in his e30, I left a comment in the product review section. Basically the opposite from JOM when talking about how it sits low in the front and not as low in the rear w/o adjusters, Think of Racelands being the opposite of that.

          Why is that? Springs are springs. As long as they are a proper rate and matched to the shock absorbers they should improve handling. Just because they are Racelands doesn't mean anything. And I was really just asking out of curiosity, I already have my suspension set up.

            I put them in a buddy's vert and they are basically identical to Joms from what I could tell. (Just installed the Joms in another car about 2 days prior)
