Coilovesr - How tight are the springs suppose to be?

[bennjamin]

is there anyway i can tell if its a progressive spring by lookin at it?

most "coilover" setups come with linear springs as mentioned.
Most non-hright adjustable shocks come with or are suited to progessive springs

See the measurment 'C', screw the top rings up so that the distance grows 10mm compressing the springs. Now by adjusting the botom ring, shorten the distance 'C' back up 10mm.
This will give you 10mm more bump travel, and your spring rate wont change, your ride height wont change.

Thanks for the info, will fix it asap!.. but do u think compressing the springs another 10mm is enough?.. is it possible to compress alil more?.. or will that be too much?.. or should i just stick with the 10mm..

I really couldnt say sorry, maby try 15mm theres no issues by compressing more, you just dont want the shocks to be topping out either.

Compressing the shocks an extra 15mm, if the springs are 10kg/mm will take 150kg more force, since there are 2 shocks at the front of the car thats 300kg more force needed to get them to bottom out. Id say 15mm more will keep you from bottoming out.
