Sportline rear springs

[Daz.]

I can help feeling my car looks a bit too nose heavy, the front is spot on height wise for me but the rear just looks odd, its a tad too high. Car is standard trim with spare and boot carpet etc so theres no option to throw a load of weight at it.

I was transporting two heavy bags of sand from B&Q the other day and went to get petrol. I couldn't help but notice how better it looked!

So I guess my question is... Can I get a custom set of rear springs that can achieve the same rate of damping as the sportlines but are a little shorter in height?

Has anyone had any experience of doing this and knows where I could find a company to do this?

Cheers!

Good luck with that,

Dont bother ringing Eibach uk, i did and got told They will not release the spring rate info. Best off getting them measured yourself, Faulkner will measure them for you if you send off your sprotline's. They aint cheap though, the price put me off and ive gone for coilies.
