    AOD clearly bought the WRONG FUCKING COILS, and is a fucktwit.

    I told you, use the same coils I run...

    TRW # CC819, they are about 65 bucks...

    These are some of the heaviest duty rears I have seen.

    Plus, I run them. It gives my car a NATURAL rake. That ain't airshocks, folks!!

      GMGT, couldn't agree more - the CC819s in my car make the self-leveling system computer purge almost all the air from the shocks, so with an empty trunk and full tank I'm basically riding only on the coils.

      Zwack88, here are two pics of my beast with the trunk stuffed with junk and before the new air-shocks get installed (so that's only coils):

            Ok I have a set coming. They don't know when they will get here but I hope they get here by Christmas. I will take pics after I install them.

                Ok I got these things installed today. I took before and after measurements. The rear before was 29 1/2" and the front was 28 1/2". So it already had a 1 inch rake to it. Well I put them on and now I'm setting at 31" in the rear! It is a VERY drastic rake. I'm going to get some fatties for the rear in the near future. I think I have the only 98+ that has this much rake. I will get pics as soon as I can. Tom thanks for insisting for me to get these.

                        Wasn't only him, IIRC But it's nice the springs work for the newer cars too, wanna see what those jokers at CVN have to say about that :evil: And yes, :ttiwwop:

                          Any idea on the rate of those springs?

                              Variable rate yes, but in Advance's computers they are listed around 250lbs/in IIRC. Will check again when I get back in the US, but that's gonna be like 2 weeks from now.
