Default Linear springs

What are some choices for the linear springs.

any help will be great.

I'll be getting some 18's, and I don't want the raised up look.

thanks!

Tough to find - everyone wants progressive ones (I don't get this) Get some coilovers

you can get them at rates you want.. the regular mach springs they have are

Front Spring Rate = 258 lbs/in (4.6kg/mm)
Rear Spring Rate = 336 lbs/in (6.0kg/mm)

Front drop = .7inches
Rear drop = 1.0inches

which looks like:



swift springs are also very light.. and saving weight is good.

espelir asd is progressive. The Espelir GT is linear, but it drops a lot.

swift is linear.
