You can buy them directly from Ground Control. Compare prices & see if the retailers have a big markup on it.

That being said....I love mine. They fit directly into the spring pockets & do nothing to affect the struts(use whatever struts & springs you already have). I think it took like 4hrs to do all 4 of mine.

 

thats sweet any improvements in handling?

 

Mine is just a DD, so kinda overkill, but I have always wanted some & never been happy with the stance after cutting or lowering springs. With these it was easy to dial in the stance that I wanted.

 

That is dependent on what spring rates you get. For that reason alone I would buy direct from Ground Control, they will include any rate springs you want. Who knows what you will get with the resellers.

 

whats even better, if you dont know what spring you need or want, GC asks for the cars use and what shocks struts you have so they can match you up with something. Great company IMO, have their setup on my 86

 

this is good news this will be a must have in the near future, so what spring rates are a good choice looking for something better then factory maybe 750/150?

 

I have 650/150, riding on 17s & a fully rod-ended rear suspension & zero complaints on a stiff ride, not even from girls.

 

Start with around a 4.5-5:1 front to rear spring rate ratio. That works pretty well on these cars.

I run 850/175. It is firm but really nice.

If your roads are REALLY smooth I'd try something like 1000/200. IMO a 650lb/in spring is not really worth the cost, that is basically stock rates. I'm sure the ride is really nice though.

 

Fwiw, I have 1050 fronts and 250 rears with 18" wheels and even with nj roads, the ride is quite reasonable.

 

Interesting. I guess at the end of the day that is only 20% stiffer than what I run.

 

I wouldn't have ordered them with such low rates, but I got them used at half the cost of new & have 2 more rear spring sets with it to try. 180 & 200, iirc. If I wanted stiffer in the frongt I could order some & installing them is such a simple thing to do. Hell....Took only 4 hours to R&R the full set the first time!

 

I put the part number in google and found a retailer selling them for $380 on sale. Thats a DEAL!

I was gonna get a set til I found out the already nearly $500 set was gonna cost something ridiculous... I think like $75... to ship from California. I didn't even check if they had retailers that would sell them. Oh well. Maybe next time.

 

what kinda of time frame do they ship these in? 1-2 weks?
