anyone w/ tein SS want stiffer spring rates??

i have FLEX 12/14 and i really want 8/10 (comes on SS)

anyone w/ SS want to trade....?


please dont move this to WTB or w/e just leave it here its about suspension so someone who is looing thru susp forum and wants to ask bout stiffer spring rates would see this and say "hey!" wow im so glad they didnt move this to WTB.. cause "i never read that section"

riley

Can SS shocks handle that? Those are pretty damn stiff rates compared to the 6/8 they're designed with.

10 Front 14 Rear(new) Vs 12 Front 14 rear(Stock).... Your going to cause more oversteer, should be fun.

Will they even fit any thing other then Tein Dampers? Because Tein is known for using non-Standard parts (Spring sizes ect...)

tamazoid is an unknown quantity at this point
so what you have right now is too stiff and does ride very good? cause i'm planning to get the tein flex within a month or two... just want some more reviews...
