What rear spring doesn't bottom w/ full load?
My H&R's with AGX give a wonderful ride with 2-3 people. However with a 4-5 people or fully loaded the rear bottoms out on large bumps, even with AGX's at 8. A real problem in NY, with all the highways being very bumpy.
I need a rear spring that doesn't bottom as easily. Basically a rear spring that is stiffer and taller (less drop) than H&R's. |
Tein h-tech?

Stock SE springs?

damn, i feel ya man, NY streets and highways suck.

Eibachs are generally known as the stiffest. May be worth a shot. But really, if you have that many people in your car that often, you should go back to stock. Your car would still look lowered anyway. :grinno:

Are you supposed to trim the bumpstops for h techs? and what causes them to bottom out?

A self leveling type rear shock, like used on the M5, would be ideal and solve all my problems. |

I am thinking of going back to Maxspeeds in the rear and H-techs in the front, although it is such a PITA to do i will probably just live with it and curse everytime I hit a large bump.
How much better are the maxspeeds with bottoming out than the h techs, if you can somehow give a comparison, also can you describe the two drops? Like which is lower in front, rear and ride differences? |
Also, housecor how are the progress springs with bottoming out?

Are the h techs lower in front? and how much does your system weigh?

I figure the system is between 150 and 200Lbs. So it's pretty much like traveling with a body in the trunk at all times. :) |
