    Anyone regretting/happy choosing 750 lb rear spring rate- hypercoils or others ?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I got some useful information on my thread (down the thread list a bit) here :
    "Anyone running Hyperco's with Vogtland coilovers,advice please" ...explains the situation
    Info on a/z appreciated always,but now its decision time to fix this up and going with my own sometimes risky assessment, unless you have a valuable counterpoint.
    I'm going this spring rate as its prob. the most used on here and I figure my Vogtland adjustable perch will fit nicely inside the top of the h/co spring @ 2.5 " (and 7" long series )
    For the bottom,I'll either cut the nib off the OEM perch or use the upper OEM p.( not used with v/l ),flipped over and it could give me great height if I end up to low.
    Boring topic to some,but if you're into it

    I went with 750lb 7" and I'm very happy. Really stiffened up the rear, car corners better and I eliminated my rubbing in the rear. I would maybe even go 800lb. But somewhere in that range is a good balance of comfort and stiffness.

    And as to "comfort and stiffness" its my wife's dd so I better ask her what she prefers out of the two.
