Coilover springrate?

[James Dean]

I plan on fitting some stupidly wide rims on my MK4 bora.
This will require a heavy spring rate.
Now my girlfriend used to hate my old car running 12kg/8kg so i don't want to go too heavy but looks>comfort.
With flush fitment how much heavier am i going to have to go?
Would a spring rate around 16kg/14kg be sufficient or could i go for a light combination?

Thank you.

your challenge will be to find listed spring rates for coilover kits.

so you want it to be soft for ur gf but hard enough to pull off wide wheels/flush look etc
dont think itll happen. Just get sumthin stupid stiff and tell her to toughen up if u want "the look"
iv found our roads are not suitable.

Car > Girlfriend.

(Alex, you better never link her to this)

Via guessing, pretty sure if i run 12/12 that'll be fine.
Trial and error i guess.
Better see whats available.
