Could this be bad?

Could this be bad?

Post by gt2.5turbo »

So i have a pretty good deal lined up on a set of 5zigen lowering springs for a GC8.

the only issue is that after looking at the suspension sticky it says the stock rear rate for a 93 turbo wagon is 190. I looked these springs up on North Ursalia's website and they say the rear is a progressive 79-180.6, which is lower than stock, and the fronts are a little beefier with a pr. rate of 169-225 i imagine it isnt a good thing that the rears become softer or is it?

Im planning on running AGX's with possibly these springs.

any thoughts or concerns?

kk well just talked to some guys and i guess this combo sucks bad cause the springs are too much of a drop.

always nice to answer your own questions

They work ok on a GC, but they are a touch soft for the drop. So yes I think they would be horrible on a Legacy.
