your on 20k /18k..... in ga??? lol.... hows the ride with that high of a spring rate??? and when you go higher and spring rate do you actually just change the coilovers or do you just change the springs?..... i heard it ok to go up by 2k but anything more isnt recommended unless you get new valving for the struts.... or is that just a myth

nah im in DC lol which is a lot worse....i just changed the springs.....my valving accomodates the springs since I got the coils custom...and yes...in order for the ride to be pretty good...if you get crazy springs...and ur valving doesnt match..its gna b a ****ty ride...my car right now i think rides good lol...but then again im used to riding like this lol
