Default **Help**Skunk2 coilover install

Coilover for an 4th gen...not sure if there is any different. But does anyone know if 0700.2.50.010 or 0800.2.50.008 spring will be for the front suspension? What are this spring rate?

if you still need help,
the last digits determin the spring rate, but i dont know what the numbers mean as
lbs. anyways, if you want stiffer springs in front or rear the 010 is stiffer than the 008. seems kinda stiff. i think the 008 is in the mid 400 lbs.

I sold the coilover and got a set of Tein. Thanks anyway.
The spring are actually 400lb/in in front and 500lb/in in the back. You would thought skunk2 drag and street coilover would be different but they not.

Are you sure about the f/r ? Here is what Dave @skunk emailed me 2 years ago:

500# front, 400# rear.

you can either use 500 front or in the rear. depending on your driving and how you
would like your car to handle, i guess. personally i like the front to be stiffer.
