i was wondering what would happen or what i would need to do if i stiffen the rf spring 25-50 lbs when we get on a rough heavy track to keep the nose from digging in the ground, or in the same case if i would soften it more for slick tracks??? i have all my ride heights wrote down and shock measurements, i was wondering if i could just change springs and set my heights back to where all my numbers where good and i would be mine or not??? thanks for any info

If you get the ride heights back, your scale numbers will be the same. Realize that stiffening only the rf spring has altered the handling of your car. You may need to make changes at more corners to keep the car balanced.

You should probably at least stiffen both right side springs.

Stiffening the RF spring will loosen entry and tighten exit handling. How high is your nose from the ground at ride height?
