New Springs Settling

JeromeS13 · 07-17-2019, 12:26 AM

I just installed the Powell YYZv2 springs. Anyone who has installed them, how long / how many miles did it take for the rear springs to finally settle? Mine are currently around OE height.

Thanks!

Have the springs settled more and if so, how much would you say they have lowered your car front and rear?

I'm looking at getting these springs next year (in addition to stiffer anti-roll bars to pair with slicks for the track) since the have stiffer rates than much of the competition.

It's hard to say for sure, as I didn't take measurements before installation. However, the front is very noticeably lower. The rear, not so much. I've driven the car around 600 km since installation, but I haven't gotten an alignment yet (I checked the toe with a string setup in my garage, and it was relatively close).

Good to know, I mostly wanted to know about the front anyways, thanks
