Man, 125lb doesn't sound like much! Venom09, how much are you paying for the bigger springs? Also, I put on the new OTTP rear sway bar and my car likes it very much, and so do I

John's mentioned that the main rates of the Pedders and stockers are similar, but the curve is different. One can only assume that it means the rear springs ramp up quicker.

Compress more to get the main rate. Better yet, find the compressed length at rest, and compress to that length, and start from there. Here's John's post about the stock spring rates:

I still have camber issues I haven't adressed yet,1.7* just isn't gonna get it done. I want plates but don't wanna hack up the strut tower or buy junk and right now those are the only options that I see. But outside of that I don't think 265s would be an issue. I'd like to go with a 265/235 staggered setup next year but i'd have to give up the hankooks and I really like them. Fingers crossed for a 265 hs3 in the next 6 months and I'll run dunlops rear!

like a nationally competitive build as in 1000lb rear springs and all? OOooOOOhh. I'm sure ypu would have more clearance with the coilovers but, have never done it so can't say 100%. Ya, make a STX thread and we all can share some info!

With coilovers there a bit more room. This I can vouch for but you need to seriously spend money to get a good set. Stance, pedders, megans, and all the rest of the coilovers out there are plain junk. I went to bedders from stance and what a difference. The only thing I miss is having dampening adjustment but for the price it is what it is. I don't think the coilovers would have handled the springs I wanted especially in the rear. Im working on getting koni to build me stuff. Will probably get it over the winter time.
