Leda - which best springrate and how hard to set up dampers?
I have Leda suspension, but I bought it with the car. Previous owner said that speings are 405lb/in. I believe because I cannot drive the car on bumpy B roads - its impossible. The car suspension is hard as a rock :-) but not that bad on the good quality tarmac.
So I would like to buy new springs from LEDA but Im not sure about specification.
I have STi3 wagon.
My setup preferences: 30% good tarmac, 70% bumpy tarmac roads.
(I will go also snow rally this year :-)
Prefer oversteer character.
Which springrate and how many clicks on front/rear.
(standard LEDA fast road recomendation is 325/225 but for bumpy roads 275/225).
Which is your spring and damper setup?
Thanks.

Very true, whats right for one driver might not be for another.
Did you mean 450lb springs? I don't think 405lb exist
That is very hard, it was probably set-up as a circuit spec, maybe even on semi-clicks. Its certainly too hard for road, particualry if you want to keep your own teeth!!
