I priovided a stock spring as an example when I had custom springs made. The guy called back asking if I really wanted 5kg/mm springs for the rear because the factory ones were 1.2kg/mm. Maybe mine were particularly rooted.

Does anyone know the rate for a standard low Lovells springs? They don't seem to be as harsh as Kings spring that I had on the car before.

Just as I thought the front is softer. I wonder if there is a reason why they would make the rear sit higher than the front? is it for handling or is it so people can carry their fat friend around?
