i have some coilovers with a spring rate of 575 front and 475 rear and its a bit bouncy. how would it ride and handle if i put the 475 in front and 575 in back? i know the stiffer spring rate in back helps on launches tho.

 

not well. the front wouldn't bounce as much but the back would go all over the place. on a bumpy road you might even lose control of the car. 575 is a very high spring rate for the relatively light rear end of an integra. Why did you get them so high in the first place? My skunk2s are 450/350 (I think) and I thought that was high.

EDIT: also remembered that this would make your front end a lot lower and back end a lot higher than it already is.

 

Anytime you put on coilovers your going to have a bouncy ride because the spring is much smaller than the stock on.

umm... bouncy or rough? the ride should be less bouncy, but rougher. you should feel bumps more, but your car shouldn't bounce. if it's bouncing, that's your shocks, not your springs.
