Question

Anyone fitted them? How stiff are these for road use?

well, im a little confused to be honest, i posted a question a few weeks back asking what settings people are running etc.

I'm currently running mine on about 10 at the moment and still find it to hard when you hit a series of ripples, as the whole car feels unsettled, its much harder than my friends leda, much harder than my std sti5 + uprated springs were.

But even stranger was that others i spoke to were running it on 28!!! They must drive on pool tables!
I have to say though, its damn good stuff, it just feels as if you can go straight round most bends without lifting off!

Thx m8,
Im between a 40mm and a 50mm apparently the sring rates of DMS 50mm tarnac are circa 700 lb/in !! STi 6 is about 300 lb-in so there u go.. So damping though it makes a difference is not the telling factor with almost 150% stiffer springs
