hey what are the spring rates for the h&r race springs?

i think i remember reading some guys thread on h-t where he gathered a bunch of info and made a data table of a bunch of brands and their spring rates and all. anyone by chance have the link? thanks

 

i believe it's 460f/350r, with 2"f/1.75"r drop. but this is for integra, i'm not sure if the spring rates are the same for your car.

 

oh i have an ef hatch. but i guess i have an estimate at what im looking at. thanks. do they feel stiff or do you feel any improvement in body handling with em?

 

How can you really measure the spring rate of a progressive-rate spring? I used to always see the H&R Sport springs claimed to be 276 in/lb front and rear. Yet in reality, the spring rate changes throughout the length of the spring. I'd like someone with real spring tech knowledge to comment on measuring the rate of a progressive spring, and if it's even possible.

 

i just saw those spring rates on team-integra, they have a list of all the spring rates from other manufacturers.

i do agree with patrick, if it's progressive then it means the spring rates changes depending on how compressed it is. they probably measured it when it was fully compressed.

if you're coming from stock spring, then upgrading to race springs will definitely be a plus in the handling department, but there's more to it than just springs. but make sure you also get new shocks to handle your drop. is this your DD or track car?

 

its gonna be my DD. im planning to put the h&r's on tokico illuminas. good combo?

 

i have tokico illuminas and i love them. i was planning on getting koni yellows, but i found a good deal on ebay for tokico's at that time.

 

i have the illumi's with h&r race springs on an 99 si and its great drop is good never rubs i have them on 5 all around not really a great ride on **** up roads but its good.
