Spoon suspension...
Just got my Spoon shocks and progressive springs installed couple days ago...
Wow........nice ride....... Perfect for roads in Alberta especailly Edmonoton..... IMO, higher end coil-overs ($1800+) with springs rate like F:10k R:10k are totally overkill for Edmonton ;) Spoon :thumbup: |
what are the spring rates on the spoon's?
|
4k and 6k i believe...but they are progressive not fixed so averages.
I have been strongly looking towards these as well...how much of a drop? I only want 1"-1.25". How soft? I am acustom to coilovers and found them fine in edmonton, mind you spring rates were 5/7k. |
Where does one get these Spoon springs, and Spoon shocks too?
I've been thinking of getting Konis and Ground Controls - then I can spec out my spring rates. |

Cool....now I wanna get a ride in Ken's car so I can feel what this Spoon sus is like!

Here's a link with some of the popular aftermarket spring rates:

Ya...Spoon is F:4.7 and R:6.9
it's 1" drop, so no worries of rubbing if u guys are planning to run different wheels.... the ride is very nice, not too harsh at all.... i can't really remember how stock feels, but ppl said it rides pretty close to stock... tried to take corners a little bit faster with the road condition today....it handles very good....gives me more confidence for sure...... Eddie drove my car today too...so maybe u guys can ask him for opinions......hehe I mean if u guys are looking for shocks & springs combo instead of coil-overs....this is a very nice choice.... Consider Showa made the shocks, same company that makes the OEM shocks, I think Spoon just re-valved the shocks and painted them yellow...hahha So u know the quality is there....and I believe RSR made the spings........ it even says "S2000" on the springs..hahaha Cool....now I wanna get a ride in Ken's car so I can feel what this Spoon sus is like! |
