I emailed them a few days ago and they have the following PROGRESSIVE rates;
Front: 336-628 lbs/in <-that's sad actually
Rear: 183-228 lbs/in <-that's a nice rate for the back

Re: Eibach Springs
I'm loving the theory in this thread. Thanks MonteSS!

Is there any thirdgenner out there who has the cut springs as Monte describes with a nice shock/strut (bilstein HD?) setup? Some personal experience would be nice here.

The 336 rate is only to preload the spring to give it enough free length to keep it from falling out of the spring pockets. The springs mostly work in the 628 range and only go to the 336 at full droop.

Re: Eibach Springs
Either way, 628 is still to soft for any kind of decent handling fbody doing autocrossing.
