i have gaz and recently changed to 400lb front springs and personally, id say theyre about spot on for the front. back need to mix and match before im happy with different rates.

used to have spax rsx, and tbh, i thought they were bang on. probably better than the gaz stuff.

400lb? Is that what people are using nowadays?

I had 280lb on the front of my Spax RSX Kryptons on my old Turbo and that felt nice.

Do you prefer these to springs & shocks & did you need to use any spacers on the fronts?
