Okay I'm looking to tweak the handling on my car a little bit so I'm going to go with some custom spring rates for my Buddy Club RSDs. Nothing too crazy, but a distinct change.
The problem I'm running into is I'm not sure the size of the springs. I suppose I could take my suspension apart and measure what is on there, then put it back on, then order my springs, then swap the springs out. But before I did that I thought I would check and see what anyone on here knows.
I e-mailed Albert at Buddy Club USA and this is what I got:
Front spring 200mm ID2.5 10k
Rear spring 150mm ID2.5 16K
So I know that the 10k/16k refers to the spring rate, does the 200mm/150mm refer to the spring length and the 2.5 is the inner diameter? The only reason I'm questioning is that seems awfully short for the spring length.
