The spring rates on Skunk2's drag springs is 900 lbs?!?!?! Dayum...is that even tolerable on the street? How is it for turns and stuff? And what shocks would handle a 900 lb spring rate?

it's tolerable, but it's gonna be fun going around a turn at any great speed and hitting a bump. The rear will be so stiff it has the chance of sliding out from behind you. Oh yea, go to skunk2, they have them. As far as looking for a deal i know of knowone.

yea, i didn't even think about ground control. That's stupid of me, i use them with a custom spring rate. Might be a better way to go and talking to them, you might figure out you don't need a 900lb spring in the rear.

I am pretty sure that Inline Four sells them. Not sure if their prices are all that great, but they have them.

i think about 400lbs up front and 8-900 in the rear as long as you don't plan on taking alot of high speed turns.
