    Be very careful relying on travel only. My experience is more late model stuff, but it isn't out of the question to stiffen spring and gain travel because the tires hooked better.

      But latemodels have twice tire to get better traction then mod with American racers so wouldn't need to spring it softer

        Yes. I didn't give you a number. The same result could happen for you going from say 150 to 175.

            I ran a 250 at 30" and would typically get 2-2.5" of travel with ump Hoosiers I typically like about a 5-6 on rebound and 3 on comp
