BC will generally swap out springs with a different rate if you ask nicely.
Stance made coilovers with custom rates about a year ago. 8k front, 9k rear. We both have a set.

Well ****, there you go. I've been out of the loop. They didn't want to make special rates for me when I was one of the first running a set.

I think it was just a one time thing though, not sure if they'd even do it again.

No i don't think they will do it again because they have to valve them all specially. They made 20 or 25 sets and due to the amount that backed out i can't see them doing it again.

BC Racing are 6k front/rear standard but they may not be low enough out of the box for stance life

I know

I will either hub swap or do a 5x112 and have them fitted.

Need to find a clean 10 (or so) bar wheel to do it.

I'm guessing those are the only spring rates they are selling now?

Not sure if I'm going to keep the 8k/9k springs or put the 6k/5k springs on this set. We'll see how low I can get the car.
