i have a set of apexi n1 exv coils that i bought used recently. the rear springs say 8kg/mm, i get that. but the front springs are kw brand and say "60-200* GBDC". is that any indication of the spring rate? if so, what does it mean?
good reading!! thinking about changing my springs around now from 12k front 10k rear to
10k-F and 12k-R. still though why wouldn't you want to get the heavier spring up front where the car is heavier and more pressure coming down on it say when braking etc. I new to the suspension game so sorry if question seems weak just trying to learn!
