Default Eibach SPORTLINES!!!!!!

Ok so I spoke with the R&D Manager at Eibach and he told me some good news about the upcoming Sportlines springs for the CRZ.

1. R&D is finished, they begin manufacturing in the next week or so.
2. Public release late August/early September.
3. Drop will be 1.3F/1.3R
4. Spring rates are 165 lb/in (2.9 kg/mm) in the front.
And 240 lb/in (4.2 kg/mm) in the rear.
5. They can be used on OEM shocks/struts.
6. No word on pricing yet but will be in close range to most other sportlines.

not to be a bummer, but Swift has similar spring rates and drop... and H&R has the same drop which leads me to believe they might have the same spring rates to the H&R springs. I'm more interested to see their coilovers released

Really? So what are the H&R spring rates. Because last I checked, that info isn't on the internet. Not even listed on H&R website....??? What that about?

I called and asked H&R several times, even tried getting other ppl to ask but they won't share that info... its weird. I mean I'm just making an assumption that the H&R might be similar to the Eibachs... I figure if you're going to have the same drop the difference in spring rate can't be huge
