Looking At UPR Coilovers What is Needed?

Hey Guys/Gals,

I am looking at getting UPR Front & Rear Coilovers and ditching my Maxspeed Lowering Springs. I can get UPR Rear Coilovers with Lakewood Shocks for $299, and the Fronts for $219. I have a couple of questions though, what spring rate/lb should I go with front & back? Also will normal Lakewood 70/30 Front Struts work with the UPR Front Coilovers?

Any info on Coilovers is greatly apprecated, b/c i know nothing about them but I do love the drop of cars with them. My car does see the Drag Strip often in the summer but I also do alot of car shows, ect. Let me know what I need!

Thanks,
Matt

The UPR's supposedly fit any shock strut not MM or Bilstein. (Stock Diameter) and they all have varying rates for springs, so whatever you are looking to do (handling or drag) go with that route. UPR really doesn't sell a horrible product but you will get the Steeda/MM/Griggs fanboys that all they buy is that one. All three of those as well as UPR make decent products and remember, you get what you pay for.

This is interesting, I'm going that route at some point also and would like some info

all I needed for the front kit were some Struts. They will work with stock, but might as well get new ones while it's all apart. Obviously an alignment after install as well.

Thanks
