Ok one more thing: I know the exact brand and type of coils on my RS1's: they're HyperCoils, and their model number system is pretty simple (they go by "free coil length", basically a coil count, the I.D., and the spring rate). So the ones I have now are 8A0500 rear (8 coil, 2.25 ID, 500 lbs/in), and 6A0650 front (6 coil, 2.25 ID, 650 lbs/in). You can see their catalog page here: http://www.hypercoils.com/skin/front...Catalog_12.jpg , but basically I can pick any reasonable rate and coil count I'd want.... do I need to change the length when I change the rate, or keep the same length as the ones I have and just change rates?
