Default Tanabe NF210

Decided on this product as compared to the swift springs because it gave the best drop to spring rate near stock ratio, and this will have the most even drop based on specs and pix

Front 4.1kg/mm / 1.4 drop
Rear 8.2kg/mm / 1.0 drop



as compared to the other brands

RSR half downs

Front 4.60kg/mm / .8 drop
Rear 8.67kg/mm / .4 drop

RSR Downs

Front 5.48kg/mm / 1.4 drop
Rear 8.98kg/mm / 1.2 drop

S.Tech

Front 5.9kg/mm / 1.4 drop
Rear 8.4kg/mm / 1.0 drop

H. Tech

Front 5.7kg/mm / 1.0 drop
Rear 8.0kg/mm / .6 drop

Swift

Front 5.2kg/mm / 1.1 drop
Rear 7.2kg/mm / 1.1 drop

I love my Tanabe springs, I've had them for about 4 months now. They ride like stock only firmer

The drop looks great how many finger gaps in front and rear? Just for reference measurement

Thanks

The rear is about a two finger gap and the front is about 1-3/4 gap which is what I wanted since I'm switching to 19" wheels soon. So with the 19's the rear finger gap should go down to about 1-1/2 finger gap and the front should be just over a 1 finger gap
