On the Megan coilovers the spring rates are too harsh for the streets I'm thinking of upgrading to swift can anyone recommend a certain spring rate for front and rear?

SPRING RATES: F: 62mm ID; 200mm length; 6 kg/mm R: 62mm ID; 220mm length; 4 kg/mm If you use the correct conversion factor of 25.4mm in an inch, you get 7.87" front and 8.66" in the rear for the length. If you use 25mm in an inch, you get 8" front and 8.8" rear (closer to a 9" long spring) Also swift coilover springs are 60mm vs 62mm for the Megan springs. You need to double check that fitment again. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
