I'm thinking about switching out my H&R Sports for GC's, but need a little advice on what spring rate to get. My car is 100% daily driven, and I would like to get a spring rate that will give me a nice ride, yet still be stiff enough to give me that "sporty" feel.

I was thinking 350f/350r?

I will be using Neuspeed Koni SP3 shocks.

 

I don't think 350f/350r would cut it. You would be left wanting more performance! And since you're in socal, you might as well take advantage of the much smoother roads. Also, get a higher rear rate to reduce the understeer. you'll feel the difference, and it will still be easily controllable. maybe 350f/450r? i think a couple people here are running 400f/500r with no complaints either.

i have a set of 350lb rear springs used two months for sale, btw. just thought i'd throw that in there.

 

I'm probably going to go with 350/400.

So is this a good daily driven setup?

 

if your going to be spending that much why dont you go w./ a full body coilover?

your gonna spend close to $700, put up a little more and get something better.

but then again I my self am running Junk2's w/ ITR shocks and LCA's and the ride is pretty bad ***!

 

i have the konis already, i was also thinking about selling my h&r/koni setup and getting tein ss's. but i dunno

Not worth it IMO. GC/Koni's seem to work very well together. Plus it's just as adjustable, as well as rebuildable, so why not stick with what you have?

 

your right, it was just a thought.

350/400 sounds pretty good
