I recently installed Bilstein's and GC coilovers. 350F/400R spring rates and I love the setup. The only problem I am having is that I bought my Ground control Coilovers from someone who already had them and the front springs are 7" long, rears are 8" long. I have now bottomed out the fronts twice when I have gone over unexpected abrupt bumps. I'm not riding really low either. I'm thinking about ordering 8" 500lb springs for the rears and moving the 8" 400lbs to the front. Should this help my problem. I'm guessing with the 7", I'm not getting enough shock travel.

 

Anyone?? I guess I know the 8" springs will work great in the front. My main question is should I order 7" 500lb springs or 8" 500lb springs for the rears?? Seems to me 8" will be good for the rears too. For the time being, I'll have to raise the fronts up to the top to give a bit more travel.
