    lol Owned.

    So how's the ride with the new springs in the back? How much camber can you run now? Did you need anything special to swap the springs?

    Thanks bro!

    I don't bottom out now im -7 camber in rear and I just put new tires actually still at America s tire now, no I did not have to do anything special. To fit the new springs just preload em properly most coilvers run same spring diameters and such

    How much preload are you running? Have your ridden in it yet? Did you set preload before putting it on the car?

    Yes I preloaded it before as the instructions on new springs suggested 1nch which is supposedly 72additional pounds of pressure

    Hmm, that seems a bit low, that comes out to like 1.2 kg/mm. Could you link the part number on these when you get back?

    If you can do -7 degrees, this sounds like something I want to get. Was it comfy on the way back?

    No problem at all with the inside of the tire now right? I really think the sweet spot for this car is 4 kg/mm spring that is 1/2 to 2/3 the length of the stock one, just so it can clear the inside of the tire.

    Good looking springs there, what are they?
    Sounds like my BC V1 springs set on full hard - spine adjuster, then again, we do not have such awesome roads like you in the US.

    James: them rims look Awesome.
    So what you doing with the white ones now? still going black?
