HOw did I come about the info on Racing Logic? or the fact the D2's are the same?
The RL I came across ... well just do a search on Racing Logic in this forum and you will find out.
As for the D2's being the same, my understanding is they use the same spring perch setup as the OEM like the RL's and the same spring length as OEM, like the RL's and hence the same inherint flaw when it comes to lowering them...they aren't designed to be that low and so bind.
Hope that helps.
Cheers
Andrew

OK here is the deal. Those rear springs are very tight...just like the OEM ones. The question is, how much adjustment do you have using the height adjustment. I hoestly doubt you have 75mm of adjustment full stop let alone from stock height.
I comfortably have mine lowered so the lip is just over my tyres. I also switched from 2" of pretension to 1".
