Wanting to run strange coil overs front and rear.. Need help!
I have a 2000 Camaro ss m6 car that I want to replace the stock front and rear springs with strange coil overs. car has their s60 rear end with 520rwhp and mostly is for street and will see the track maybe twice a year. wanting to know what spring and some part numbers if possible. I want double adjustable front and rear. just looking for some insight on a direction I might need to go.

You need to know how much do you plan/want to lower it. The lower you go the more spring rate you need to minimize bottoming out the shocks. With rear coil overs that mount in the stock shock location you'll need to reinforce the upper shock mount area since it's not designed to hold the vehicle weight in that location. For a mostly street driven car I'd recommend just running the Strange DA shocks and aftermarket rear lowering springs like BMR or Hotchkis that mount the spring in the stock location, or the stock rear springs with the hose mod. Now if you still want to go the coil-overs in the rear Id go with the 150 lb.in spring rate, Unless this is just a weekend toy I'd go with at least a 350 lb.in front spring rate, or if you are willing to get 2 sets of front springs then go ahead and get a 300-325 front track springs and a 400-550 for the street springs, depend on you front ride height.

I would be more than happy to help you out I just need to get some more details from you before I can do so.
