[QUOTE="Jroc, post: 9649684, member: 51847"] Coilovers totally change the geometry of the suspension. Think of theie spring placement compared to the factory spring placement. You are moving the springs out farther(particularly much farther in the front) which changes what rate is need to to stiffen up the suspension to point X or whatever. Think if you try to do pushups with your hands right beside each other. Its hard to do and takes a lot of strength to push yourself up. Now think about do pushups with your hands apart 2 or 3 FT. It becomes much easier, and takes much less strength to do. They will probably be a striffer setup than the 600 lb spring factory setup. I ran 375 lb front/575 lb rear springs on my Cobra. I vote upgrading to some MM valved Bilstein Sport shocks/struts. [/QUOTE]
