Linear Springs Vs Progressive | Favorite Brand.

What would you want to use , whats your thoughts on these. What is your favorite brand, either way.

How are you rocking that. I would like to mix and match spring sets myself. Wondering if anyone has done that yet.

I wouldn't call it tailor made but they have different rates and heights, not to mention applications. Yah just speak of what you want and hopefully they have.

Ask and you will receive...

btw, what is your ideal setup?

I want to try some progressive on the street. But I just got a feeling linear is the way to go. I also got some spring rates off a tuner prelude. So I might just try to match those.

Show us the spring rates. My experience with linear is that they're stiff and for normal daily drive not all that comfortable. Good for track though. Also what drop are you looking at? I got a friend with the 4g and his drop was 1.4-1.5" allround and looked tite.
