btw I love my PBM's

hey, whats your wheel/tire size combination? i think i may need to go to 35 series.

how can i mess them up? how can i install them wrong? That doesnt make sense. I dont know whats going on, but im gonna find out soon...

You should start another thread since this one is about PBM coilovers.

And yes, I've swapped springs on my coils before (GS400) because the stock HKS springs are crappy. Went with swift springs and increased the spring rate by 1kg/mm

Just don't change the spring rates too much. If you do you will have to send you coils in to get the valves adjusted
