Really? Are you planning on swapping with stiffer at any point? What swaybars/shocks are you going to be using with those springs? |

| I have the Tokico Illumina's on the car now, and Spohn sway bars (37/25). I will likely go to stiffer springs at one point. I got the kit used on TGO for $250, so I didn't pick the spring rates. I'll drive it, and see how it feels, then descide if I want to go higher, or what I want to go to. |

Hmm where can I get much stiffer rear springs? You said springs were cheap right?
When is that going on? You need to get those wheels and new rubber dude! |

Paul,
You would have to get the proper G-C spacer to use the GC rear springs.
If I were you, I would get these. http://www.pitstopusa.com/detail.aspx?ID=23985
Those will allow you to run a startard 5" race spring in the rear, then you just order 5" springs from anywhere that sells them (summit, coleman, etc.). |

Is that 5" width or 5" height? I need stock height, but my springs now have two factory spacers and are cut and they are too soft.
Looks like that is for front? And adjustable? |

| no, that will use a 5" diameter spring, you would buy a 9" tall for the rear, and use that adjustable spacer. You can then set your ride height where you want. That adjuster will fit over the stock spring mount, and then the spring will seat on it. |
