    I do have one of my vr4s on teins coilovers 8.0kg front and 5.0kg back this exact set and on the other vr4 stock front and stock spring with bilstein b6 at the rear and 90% daily driving I choose stock, tein are very harsh and 245/45/18tyres dont help either. Thing is, suspension subject is very hard to discuss as for one rock hard wil by too soft for other.

    That’s a shame, DemonTweeks are selling a set of Vogtland lowering springs for about £100 when I last checked
    Professional bodger!

    Seriously if you can get a good set of adjustable coilovers. few others I know run b6/8 combo with springs and even they comment that my setup feels much better for s treet and spirited driving

    Another let down for me as ebay seller cancelled order.
    Anyone knows specs for Tein S rear springs for Legnum or know where I can buy any springs, lowering or standard as seriously I'm lost. Demon T weeks has some but it says for 2wd vr4?

    Not Legnum unfortunately.
    I might get set of rear springs from Mike /Viamoto KYB and keep front on Tein as must move Legnum from the ramp as I have to start working on galant

    They are rear teins for Legnum, has been slightly modified to fit coilovers but after a short run, maybe a mile, i did swap back to original coilovers springs, Up for grabs, just make me an offer
