Anyone have H&R coilovers? What are the spring rates?
Thinking about the H&R coilovers, and I'd appreciate any opinions. Also if anyone knows the spring rates I haven't found them anywhere. These will be for a DD, never tracked. Looking for better steering response and quicker turn-in plus the fender gap reduction and these are available pretty cheap.

I have them on my DD. The spring rates are progressive (as appose to linear as most are). I don't remember what the exact rate is. Search for a thread called Springs, Springs, Springs.

Thanks alnielsen, how do you like the H&R??? How is the ride & comfort? I'm hoping to really tighten up the car, I've driven a subaru 2.5rs with coilovers and it felt like it was on rails, the turn-in was instantaneous. Will the H&R do this for me?
