I have a love-hate relationship with my progressive rear springs.

[Leroy Peterson]

I've never driven in a car with progressive springs... All I heard was to avoid them for track work.

I've got Kings on Bilsteins & cant fault them.

Not like any of us do enough track-work to blame performance on springs anyways haha

[emts]

I had tien progressives on mine first time round with new shocks.

They were awful. Crashed about on the street then got all floaty when pushed had on the track

Worst of both worlds

Moved to my coilovers. Slightly more comfy on street and so much better on track

we all know the best is stock suspension for superior acceleration

[Mohsen]

yeah ive got teins but the thing is, the thing has no traction in 2nd or 3rd gear with 280kw.
the thing hardly squats

Dude you've got base model Teins that are all rusted and flogged out because they're 20+ years old.......

"Yeah but I've got Teins"

Edit: Oh and don't let me forget your second hand "Semi Slicks" !

Bc it is

The Toyos were great when warm, not so much on the street lol

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

They can't have been that great.

Semi's on the rear and linglong's on the front with Mohsen behind the wheel and the car is still in 1 piece

[Mohsen]

haha all round,
this one time i had ku36s on the back and federals on the front, doing a u turn with johno and the car went straight lmao

[emts]

got some camber worn R888 if you want to find out what true understeer is

[UNR33L]

Achilles all around > old semis

do you have any suspension work done to the car? Swaybars, camber, castor adjustments?

Swaybars make a massive improvement in understeering/oversteering.

I call bullshit on this..

went from the old R888 to Achilles 123 Sport (their supposedly track tyres)

grip level dropped so fast it was not funny.

just ended up spinning tyres out of every corner.

[UNR33L]

Maybe for track work they are sheit

my ATR sports seems aight for street duties at least #achilles #sponsorme
