C3 Motorsport Coilovers

Would you say those rates are good for city streets? I like a stiff car, but I live in the DC metro area and the potholes can be abundant! Poor road repairs are easy to come by too. I wish I remembered what rates my H+R c/o's had.... Count me in eather way.

I live and daily drive my e30 in the DC/MD/VA area. I have this exact kit (450f/750r) installed on my car. You are more than welcome to take her for a test drive and see how everything feels. She sits pretty slammed too.

do you have pics of this kit installed on e30 ?

I'm sure I can whip some up later on this week, granted my car is not the finest example.

Whatever DSP preference is, is fine by me if you can make the half kit work. I'd probably go for a short strut though.

Jordan has a set on his 318is as well, but I can't seem to find any photos at the moment.

And you can also see pics on my car at www.blackwidowproject.com

That would be cool....

My car has it as well. Rides great, handles even better!

I'm thinking 500/800 slyder

I'm going to add in my 2cents. For as light as our cars are those rates are ULTRA stiff. And considering the tires most of you are running WAY, WAY stiff....You can run a much softer spring, bigger front bar, and shocks valved appropriately and the car will have plenty of roll control, plenty responsive, and actually have more mechanical grip than those huge spring rates....

Even with 275/35/15 or 285/30/18 Hoosier autox tires (havn't decided what size yet) I'm only going to run a 450/500 set of springs. 25mm adjustable front, and 'maybe' a stock rear bar, maybe nothing.
