Second set of softer ers springs

[Jean]

Autocross season is over and I am going to drive my e30 for a little bit until I find something else for daily. The 500/650 spring rate is a little too much when driven on crappy roads, so I am going to buy a second set of ERS springs for my GC coils. They are about $240 for a full set in whatever rate and length I want.

What would be a good spring rate for a sporty ride ? 250/350 ?

I can't wait till winter comes around, so that I can adjust my coilovers to 4X4 mode and Konis to full soft!

For your rates I would think anything near the H&R Sport rates would be nice... 185/380. So your 250/350 sounds very bearable, I may even drop that down to 200 for the front.

hehe yeah me too. although getting softer springs sounds like a good idea too.. i run 450/650 right now. where are you guys buying the springs from?

I am using GC sleeves with standard Eibach ERS springs. $59 each in any length or spring rate directly from GC , plus they are local to me.
