Just wanted to make the point that most 'progressive' springs are usually designed to spring bind! When you load the car, the 'soft' suspension section of the spring stacks-up and binds (that's one of the reasons Eibach ProKit springs have rubber windings around part of the spring -- that's the part designed to bind -- the rubber keeps it quiet) and then you're operating on the much stiffer part of the spring.

It's potentially the best of both worlds - a great compromise. So Pedders may well be 'better' for most purposes, but it really depends on your expectations and the desired results. Bottom line: one sized DOESN'T fit all!

There are many, many, many, many solutions to every problem, depends on your needs, an 'open mind' would be a good thing to have -- you just might learn something you didn't know before...

FWD power on oversteer???? Really curious how you would "set up" a car for this. Been doing autox for 7 years, and about 10 track days and have never experienced this. Throttle down = rear sticks, more throttle= power on understeer. I'm not buyin this one.
