Default RSR Superdown front and SUS down rear?

Hi guys, new to the board.. Been reading a lot on the lowering options, lots of good info here...

Based on the pictures I've seen posted, I myself prefer the RSR superdown springs however, with all the camber and tire issues I'm second guessing myself.

Has anyone ever tried this or what can be the consequence of running the RSR superdown fronts and RSR down rears?

So I believe that will be f1.8/r1.2, it's the same .6 difference, just the other way around where the front is lower then the back.

My car is an AWD f-sport btw.

I don't think anyone has tried it. If your worried about camber issues I think you will still have the same issues, but there are companies now making camber kits to fix it

I wondered the same thing bro. One of the exec's in my office has a Infinity Q50s and he said the guys on the 'Fini Forum are using Super Down fronts and RS*R Downs in the rear and selling the more conservative springs to other members.

I personally hate the way springs give an "even" drop. I think cars should have more of a "rake" drop (where the front end sits lower than the back end. On my 3rd gen GS, I opted for BC Coilovers for this very same reason and LOVED the way my car handled with JUST the coilovers (most 3rd Gen'ers would do the sway bars as well- I think it was unnecessary once you tuned the coils to the best settings for you).

I am not sure what the spring rates are on the super downs vs the downs, but I would imagine this is doable. As much as I do not want to loose the tuning from the drivers seat for the dampening of our stock struts, I would prefer a perfect balance set up of coilovers....especially considering I will run the stock F-Sports for a while before going with some 20's or 21's...
