Hi All, new to the Forum.
I have a 2001 V70 T5, (been in the family since new). I always thought it had really soft suspension right from new (had 850 T5 before that and much firmer (and still nice)). I don't want to "slam it on the ground" with a 30mm drop (have done this with a Puma which was so tall on its std springs as to be stupid).
What I really want is to fine a set of std or minimal drop springs that are a good deal higher in spring rate. All the ones I can fine on the web seem to be ~30mm drop and none or them mention an actual spring rate or even a %age up on standard.
I tow a good bit (a few different race cars), so if I put 30mm drop springs on the thing it will likely be useless for towing.
Is there anywhere you can get a good bit higher rate std height springs? Car has new 235/45x17 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3's on (new today), has great overall grip in the corners once loaded up, but (a has always been the case with the car from new) the change of direction just shows up how very soft the standard springs are. Need something like 30% stiffer but standard height. Not intending to changed dampers at this point.
