Kramer please dont post if you dont know shit. Which you dont. Im going with 350/500 and im getting the package from weksos
Why would you get softer in the front?
I said “or some shit i dunno” which means I wasn’t sure :retardclap
And I was only 50lbs low front/rear so no need to shit your pants.

anything under 500 lbs in the front tends to sag past the “sweat spot” in the suspension hight even with the purch at the top of the sleeve.(the kits come with 6 inch long springs unless you ask for something different) for dd…with the 550lb springs in the rear, you still have a lower Hz number in the rear so the car is hard to rotate, for autoX you would want something more like a 700lb spring, this will help the rear end to come around in trail braking or ttos. Or what ive come to undestand thus far. Its been verified by quite a few people running the setup. The springs i want to go with are actually a little shorter than the 6 inches in the front and 9 in the rear because im not going 400/600. My car is setup for more autocross where yours is probably drag so your probably stiff in the front.
i use the all seasons on my OEM wheels for winter and the 19s for summer with summer tires(but idk about this coming summer, one of the 19s is busted, if u recall) anyone help me find a company that make me a rep? plz?

Right, but use the coil to adjust ride height, not the spring length. Softer springs need to be taller (obviously) than stiffer springs. GC knows this back and forth for Civics, tell them what rates you want and they’ll give you the proper height.
you drive a maxima.
have you ever driven your car on ‘Max Performance’ or ‘Ultra High Performance’ summer tires?
How about on dedicated snows?
If your answer to either of those questions is no, you couldn’t possibly disagree.
All seasons SUCK ASS.
This coming from someone who currenty has AS’s on both of his cars.
lol… I love having season dedicated tires…

For a drag set-up, stiff rears are wanted so it doesn’t squat because you want the weight on the front for traction. I think you have it backwards.
Disagree.
My Goodyear TripleTred Assurance (215/55/16) are more than adequate in the summer and did just fine yesterday evening (I went to Cohoes and then to UAlbany vs Hartford game).
They aren’t the same as my Kumho Ecsta SPT’s in the summer, but they ain’t no slouch either.
both of those tires suck, sorry to deliver that news to you

I’m hoping to be in the ‘sweat spot’ Sat night. Can you offer any advice?
