more money but the compound it's harder. my ride is much better (sportier) I still would like more spring rate so I can put my 90 pound woofer box in the trunk and not have my car feel so heavy in the rear, how are does new Micro Image springs? (just for the rear)

Wow those are expensive, let us know how they are, and how good they are.

Using MI springs might work. The rears are 3k, compared to 2.6 for the NF, however the drop is 1.1" for the NF compared to 1.75" drop for MI, so that might look really strange.

So far the spring rate is much stiffer than before, so they are working. Quality they are like a very hard polyurethane material and the old ones are like soft rubber.

That's why I was thinking on the MI springs 3K, I know about the drop issue?

Looks like coilovers could resolve my issues

Or you could just use the MI springs all around, at $130, they are a deal and a half.

I wonder if there was a way to figure out the new spring rate, these make me want to try springs first, before buying shocks, or going crazy and getting a coilover system.
