A question about spring rates for D2 coilovers
A question about spring rates for D2 coilovers
I am about to purchase some D2 coilovers and I was wondering what spring rates you guys are running with these coilovers? I want a firm, but not-bone jarring ride.
5k (280 lb)
6k (336 lb)
7k (392 lb)
8k (448 lb)
9k (504 lb)
10k (559) lb
I was thinking 7k in the front and 6k in the back. What do you guys recommend? Thanks in advance!

I think the definition of "comfortable" may differ according to driving style and road conditions. The best compromise between handling and smooth ride would be 8k front, and 6k rear. PM me for damper and height position settings when you get them.
