E30 Rear Spring Rates?
Discussion
Already asked in 'Track Days' and on e30 Zone but getting no answers so I'll try here.
The rear springs I recieved with my Supersport Kit are a bit long and soft to match the front so I was going to order some new ones from Faulkner (they cost about £20) probably something about 7' Long 1.9' id that I can drop onto the standard rear mounts.
Has anybody done this before and can anyone recomend a suitable spring rate (in lbs) as the Supersport ones don't come with any rate marked on them.
Car is a 1989 E30 320i Touring, that has been 'aggressively' stripped out, already has the uprated and shortened Supersport shocks at the rear and Supersport Coilovers at the front and will be used from track/drift work so comfort is irrelevant.
FYI this is why I need different rear springs. A lot of rake!
