Jesus, don't let Sam see that comment about stiffer springs LOL Nose dive under hard braking on 550 Front springs is a biatch.

But yes...it does. IMO a minimum of 850 front 250 rear is a nice. I might go even higher.

They do for stock style suspensions. I'm on 850/250 and thinking about going higher.
