Any idea on spring rates?

Any modifications needed to the strut towers to run the camber plates?

Thanks.

I remember seeing HYDE16 doing a review on these coilovers, and he mentioned that the "front receives a linear 400 lb springs with helper springs while the rear gets beefier 285lb progressive springs."

And for the camber plates, you can cut off a section of the strut tower but I just left mine as is and just took off the coilover if I needed to adjust camber.

Here's the review of the ST XTA's from HYDE16, he goes really into depth about em!

Great set of coilovers here, I still run mine in NJ and love them.

Thanks. Great to hear, NJ roads suck!!!

I have been debating about them since he posted and can't make up my mind. I didn't think they would go low enough but after measuring the car I think they will be perfect. Wating for some stuff to sell to get some extra cash. A downpipe also popped up for sale in the area that I am looking to buy so that is eating into my suspension budget. So many parts and don't want to upset the CFO :)
