please help....coil overs

[Black95TSIawd]

i just got tokico non adustables and 450lb adjustable coils in the front but the spring is soooo crammed together. they bottom out fairly easily. Are 450's too week??



by the way i have 350's for the rear but i dont have them on yet so the car is slanted down in the front.

It's not too weak, it's too short.
Front coilover springs should be 8"long. 7" is OK. Anything shorter won't have enough travel. How much thread is left on the coilover to add longer springs?

There is room to add longer springs but where can i get longer springs from??

Man, what were they thinking when they designed that flash screen? Bogging the hell out of everyone?

Good springs, but... ugh... Terrible web design.

Also, any real racing shop will have them or can get them for you. Real meaning actually involved in some sort of sanctioned racing body (SCCA, IMSA, etc), not dumpy show boyze street-race cars.
