We have two different spring styles on Nils car the fronts are single progressive "K" style DMS Barrel spring @ 650lb, and the rears are the standard 700 lb DOUBLE progresive barrel spring DMS uses. Because these springs are both barrel shaped and wound from a double tapered wire the stated rates are subjective and have no correlation to "regular or normal" springs. Sorry if this didn't help much.. My last set-up on Buddyclubs/ JIC ran about 7-800 front and 8-900 rear. but didn't have NEAR the wheel travle the DMS set-up has.

 

You know where to go to get the help...lol...

 

thx Robi.. Good stuff. that sounds like a hard-core setup. I don't suppose the car remains much of a daily driver if you run 600~700 lbs in spring rates.

 

Thanks dude.. bought Hotchkis Swaybar and will install to med. setting first. Going to track this weekend - EVO virgin trip! Once I get the feel, I'll turn it up a notch. Thinking about Coilovers for next year... will research on DMS 50mms. Don't know what they are.

I'm showin your video around to friends just to let them know the EVO can kill Vipers

 

What is the sizing and offset on those wheels? Im SOLD, I love the way they look! Any feder mods? Thanks!

 

better ride than stock..progressive springs and different bump & rebound settings for the street...

 

18x9.5 Enkei's, only come in silver.. I painted mine white. I forgot the offset but I am sure Robi knows.

Yes, fender mods to run 275's...

 

Thanks nils. No problems with fitment, spacers, or anything? If Robi is reading or if you can ask if, Id appreciate it. I was reading weights for them and they're super freakin light!

 

Well they arn't that light @ 19 lbs. But they are the strongest wheel I've ever run....
Offset is +40 and they need 20mm front wheel adaptors. Enkei is currently out of stock on this wheel to the best of my Knowledge

 

your bumper is hot!

 

Great stuff. I'm saving up for my RobiSpec treatment. Those Enkei's look awesome in white. I'd love 18's, but aren't racing tires considerably more expensive in that size as opposed to 17's?

 

what width tires are you using....and what suspension

 

Actually, it is a 17mm spacer that works

thx.

Yes, the 18" size tires are alot more expensive. I am currently thinking about getting another set of 17"'s just for that reason... we'll see.
