    "They know their shit"????



    I tried to find out about this too. I asked a couple of places, and to get a set of custom made springs, I was looking at about $600-odd for a set of 2, from memory. For that price, I thought I'd be better off sticking with what I had until I saved enough for a set of full coilovers.

    yeah they both do custom heights...
    Ill let kings do the custom height business
    KMAC is fine too but their spring range is always uncaptive... and i hate uncaptive springs.. just doesnt seem right



    I asked about custom spring rate..
    this was from the technical advisor of king spring dude in melbourne :
    "we can, but your better off buying a spring to suit as it would cost too much" - 600+ (u can get any rates with that money with better brand)

    and KMAC...
    I have been told they simply cut coils off coils to increase the spring rate by people from other forums ahahhha...



    BTW - you need to know what u want..... the word custom means BS*.. are u talkaing about height, rate, color, sticker.. if u dont know what you are talking about then read up on it... - you cant call kings or any manufacturer and ask i was cutome and not be able to name specs........ give more details..

    are you using stock shocks.
    stiffer lower springs require higher damper rate otherwise you just bounce like an idiot.
