K-Sport - Spring Rate Recommendations

[WhiteRabbit]

Probably gonna pick up a set real soon and replace my Tokico/Eibach setup.

Was wondering what spring rates I should use for a less harsh ride. Or should I just stick with the stock spring rates?

Thanks!

If you have the gen3 then you can't go lower than 5kg, so I guess use 7kg in the front and 5kg in the back, k-sport's website default spring rates on the gen 3 camry is either 9kg or 10kg (they keep switching probably based on customer feedback) and 5 kg in the back. That's what I'm getting 7kg front/5kg back. I heard that switching out the coilover springs to the same spring rate to Swift USA coilover springs will improve the ride quality and performance but I need confirmation on this. I send Miltdoggie a pm on the matter but no response, maybe he didn't recieve it .

I was going to go with the stock rates on mine when I had them but never got to install them. I figured they would know best and would have the most neutral setup, then I dont have to worry about messing the handling up...

wait a bit for yesca to install them and see what he thinks.

If you have a v6 then stay with stock set up 9/5, if not then go with 7/5, it will be more comfortable.

^makes sense.

Id say stick with defaults. Defaults are just fine for daily driving and tearing up the streets

7/5 for I4
9/5 for I4 with upgraded front sway bar
9/5 for V6

why would you stiffen up the front even more after already stiffening it up with a front sway bar? you want severe understeer or something?

[AyzhenInvasion]

oh crap sorry ~
i remembered wrong.. lets try that again -.-;;;;;;

7/5 for I4 if you want it 'more confortable'
9/5 for I4 if you want it more stiff (according to some people, its not too far from neutral, so it shouldn't be that dangerous) and definately for any v6
9/7 for if you have upgraded front sway bar (otherwise u'd understeer)

thanks for noticing ^^;
