    I'm curious - does anyone know the weight distribution on these cars? Has anyone measured?

    We had weight distribution discussion a while back and it is something like 61/39 as I recall. This has little bearing on spring rates as there are other factors such as anti-roll bar and mechanical leverage to take into consideration. Otherwise you don't see whole picture.

    Stiff front + soft rear = understeer, and this is not what you want.

    From measurements AD rear springs are ~20% stiffer than stock, and they work well with TEIN rear shocks, much better than OEMs and TEIN. No seesaw, no bottoming out or topping out like with 2 others. Cannot simply try fronts because TEIN shocks need square end at the bottom.
