got my new spring rates in also put my ls webs on my hatch
well i finally bought some dif. springs rates after riding on stock shocks in the rear with 1000lbs springs for 3 months i decided i needed to have a smother ride, so on wednesday i called up ground control and got 350lbs springs for the front and 300 for the rear, i put the 300 for the rear on today and o my i went from ghetto *** ride to a luxury ride, i'm so happy now, the pefermance isn't as good becuase with the 1000lbs spring i could launch at whatever rpm i wanted to and i woundn't get wheel hope or spin my tires i couldn't even chirp any gears with the 1000lbs spring, but i'm happier with a smoother ride,
and the reason why i didn't put the fronts on becuase i have the regular spring rates from vis, cuz i have the vis v spec coilovers, but i will put the 350lbs up front tomorrow or sunday. and when i changed the rear the stock shock was leaking and it would sqeek and make loud knocking noise whenever i made right turns
also i decided to take my rota slipstreams off and clean them, so i put on my ls webs on my hatch for a couple days i never seen anyone with the ls webs on a hatch so here it is also i got em for $80 with tires, not to shabby. 14inch rims there riding the side(snoop dogg voice)

Looks pretty damn nice, got a question. This may be dumb but do you have to buy the Ground Control Coilovers to have custom spring rates?

Why Did you Decide to run Stiffer Front Rates?
You do know that those Spring rates Require Weird Camber/Caster Setups to work right!
