I'm upgrading my setup to 350F and 500R and going to crank up the dampening on my shocks before I decide on upgrading to the R shocks. The stock setup allowed for way to much body roll even at slow street speeds. It's safe insurance for saving my front splitter.
Where are you all buying new springs from? What are the specs? TIA
These are just 2.5" wide by 8" tall coil over springs, you can get them lots of places, like summit racing

818R Build in progress
We had 500f/350r, now switched to 450f, 500r for autox. It's a bit harsh on the street, but livable.
We are partial to hypercoils.
If anyone wants our FFR "R" springs, PM an offer to myself or Tamra, all 4 are available.
