[QUOTE="macbar13, post: 12418310, member: 140203"] I just bought koni yellows and steeda sports for my track pack GT at strano performance parts. I bought them because the stock shocks suck! It pogo's like crazy and is severely underdamped IMHO. I got the sports over the ultralights, because I didn't want to go to low AND the way I understand it, the ultralights even though they are listed as having a lower spring rate, actually end up being a higher spring rate than the sports. Let me expain... The ultralights are progressive wound springs and the sports are linear. So you would think the progressive's would have a better ride. BUT, if you have ever seen the ultralights in person... The progressive part you can almost squeeze together with your hand. So when they are mounted on the car, the progressive part is compressed and now you basically have a linear spring... And that section of spring is a higher rate, than the overall linear rate of the sports. The lower spring rate # listed on the ultralights is the average of the two sections. At least that is how I understand it. I haven't had the chance to install them yet. I didn't get camber plates either. I think I'm going install them with stock bushings and see how far out the camber is. I'm ok with -1.5 degrees, but if higher than that, then I will get the steeda camber plates. [/QUOTE]
