[QUOTE="MrSwa, post: 9647809, member: 53973"] I recently bought a set of coil-overs off another member on this site. Today I took them apart and got a lot of the dirt off them (not looking for them to be spotless, they are going back on a car). Now I have a couple of questions. 1) These are the maximum motorsport coil-overs on stock bilsteins. The front spring rate appears to be 350lb/in. This is the best I could determine from the rusted up marking since I didn't have a brush or wire wheel to clean them off. This seems insanely low to me. Am I crazy? 2) The rear spring rate appears to be 550lb/in. How will this ride? I have read that the stock springs are 600lb/in. Is this true? The most important 3) There appears to be a c-clip on the rears. This was broken on both of mine. There is a groove for it I think, but what is this and does it need to be replaced? Pictures below.
