spring rate, counter understeer

[Barron]

Currently got AST coilovers fitted with 450lbs springs on the front and 750lbs springs on the rear.

The car is understeering abit when pushing it on track days.

I could either go for a adjustable ARB to help the rear or go for softer front springs.

Question is what sort of lbs should i really be going for?

thanks

With those kind of spring rates i would hope it is a very track focused car. maybe little high if not running it will a descent cage and the correct tyres.

Have you tried runing different damper settings and camber angles on the front?

 

[Fred@BTM]

sort your sodding camber out first and then soften the front up a lot!

Won't the dampers need revalving for softer springs?

should of bought LEDA

Those springs seem very hard, maybe get someone like fred to have a go to try asses it (not into the tyres though )

I had a few issues last year with understeer, in the end I had to soften the rear up as it was "pushing in" I also got the camber and caster set up by the pros,

the above fixed it
