Hello, I have gone from one shop to another and nobody seems to know what they are talking about here in the East Bay. People trying to tell me my tires are too wide, pshh (they're only 235/40/18in front). Well the issue is I bought the Megan Racing EZII Street Coilovers and the shop had set them up too low so they were scraping a little too much. Now my ride is probably 1 or 2" lower than stock and doesn't scrape as much but I have to have the dampening on the hardest setting (0) in order to have it not bounce/scrape as much. It's still way too soft for comfort and waaaay more body roll than my stock shocks had.

Question is: Does anybody know what kind of springs I should get to make them 12k and 10k up from Megan's setup of 10k 8k. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!!
Also if you know of any shops that you'd recommend for this, that would really help me out. Once again thanks for the advice!

The factory rates are 10k/8k. So IF Megan offers the option for 12k/10k springs to upgrade what you got, cool. But anything higher than 12k/10k, then you'll have to get new shocks with valving that matches. So if those 12k/10k springs do it for you, cool. But that's honestly not that much of a change.

i'm jealous, i wish my suspension setup was a bit softer. i'm running on rs*r coilovers and have them set to the softest setting, but even that can be bone jarring when going over a bump in the road.

i mean the steering feedback is excellent, although i'd trade some of that to make the car more comfortable.

14kfront 10k rear is the best imo

Thanks guys! Does anybody know a brand that makes compatible springs or what kind of springs I need for my setup? Thanks again for the advice you guys!

Are you bottoming out? or are you just hitting fender liner? If so just heat up the fender liner and bend it back.

I've removed the plastic liner pieces where it was wearing through when my car was lower. I just hear this loud metal scrape/crunching sound on any big dip over 40. It sounds like it's bottoming out. Do you think springs could help this?

Yeah it's pretty normal, I have 12/10 k BCs and my car is fairly slammed.. tucking 2-3 fingers of tire or 24 inches from fender to ground. Spring rates would help if you get something much stiffer like 16/14 or even 18/16. I had a buddy who had 18/16 and his didn't budge at all and he was slammed forreal fender to lip or the wheels The only thing that would be worth it is to just raise it up or drive slower or get bags lol

Thanks. Anything I should be looking for when shopping for springs? Length? Brand? THanks guys
