Stiffer springs rear?

[Kenned4200]

Hi all.
Ive got the v-maxx coilover kit fitted. But the car scrubs in the rear when i load something in the boot. (rear seats are taken out).
Do you know any springs that lower the same (adjustable thingies are taken out) as the v-maxx, but are stiffer?

If you'd of bought a decent set of coils you could set the stiffness of the shock

I know. But i dont.
Anyone?

It's not always the answer to be honest.

Most coils use standard diameter springs, you can get different rates from any decent motorsport place.
Only problem is knowing the rates of the original springs.

you can work out the spring rate on the springs ou have,

Its somthing like the diameter of the wire x the number of full coils. something like that. have a look on google and it will tell ya

I didn't know that!

The only way I've seen it done is with a machine.

I'll go and have a look.

add some more bumpstop to the shock??
so that it hits the bumps stops before scrubbing??

its not comfy, but stops scrubbing.

ideal if you only go down that low on very rare occasions!
thats what theyre there for after all!
