Default anybody know the spring rates on...

does anybody know the spring rates on Eibach ProKit???
i'm thinking of keeping my front ProKit springs and use Ground Controls coilovers in back. and i'd want to keep the rates relatively close.
this is just for ride hiegth on my sedan. the front's good, but i want the rear lower sometimes. i like the ride of the Eibachs, the reason i want to keep them. and only thinking of this because i can't get any good info on Koni Yellows and their rear hieght adjustment.

or tell me if this is a bad/stupid idea...

according to the koni site ( http://www.koni.com/_cars/_sport/afram.html ), the koni adjustables don't have a height adjustment. i thought i heard they did, but that could be wrong. you could call koni up and ask...

if your going to get GCs, get them for all 4 corners. you'll be happier that way. i know i am with my GC/koni combo.

well i've had skunkworks in the past and i think they're a pain in the ***. that's why i got full springs this time around. i like my front heigth, it's perfect, but i want more of a drop ONLY in the rear.

yeah maybe i'll just give Koni a call...

why do you think the skunks were a pain in the ***???

if you just want a drop and perf is a side factor, then maybe you should get the eibach sportlines. they are a little more of a drop and linear springs, so you get a little more perf out of them...

call up Ebiach...they are the only company I have ever talked to that lets you know spring rates and any other info you could ever want. They are a great company when it comes to customer service.

my skunks always got dirty and would sieze up sometimes. and it was a pain to get the car's heigth even at all four corners.

the sportlines woulda taken it too low. i'm using dropfork/proarms in conjunction with the springs so my ProKit dropped it 2.7/2.5 and my front uca's already slam into my strut tower on bad bumps. i guess that happens cause they are too soft of a spring for where my strut/spring assembly sits in the wheelwell. i mean 2.7 and 2.5 aren't that much of a drop but...
