Default Need Help on choosing springs!! LOOK

Need help on springs for my dc2. I was wondering which spring rates lower 1.5 to 2 inches in the front and 1 to 1.5 in the back. Im looking for springs that lower more in the front. And at the same time good quality, smooth ride, good on turns. THanks

Um, if you're picking out custom rates I don't see why you wouldn't just get an adjustable set (Ground Control comes to mind), in which case the final height and rake is entirely up to you. For 2" / 1.5" drop, you can run a relatively mild rate to keep comfort or go much stiffer to help with cornering, but you can't have both.

Seriously, do some research on this site, there's plenty of info, but you won't get anything useful from this thread without a fair bit more information.
