HAL Spring rate? (or G2's?)
 
I'm seeing 325lb as the stiffest HAL spring. However, the non Coil Over springs are in the 500's. :confused:

Do Coil Overs use lower spring rates and get the same stiffness?

Is there any reason why I shouldn't use G2's with HALs? (I know I need adapter plates) Is there anything like "the HALs are "designed" for coil over springs?"

The reason I want to use HALs is I have a set of HALs (that I got for free) that I can get rebuilt for $100 and my funding is pretty low. Otherwise, I would probably get the Bilsteins.

Please don't tell me to call Sam. I just don't have the dough for that. Please don't tell me about spending more $$ in the long run either because I'll live with what I get since I don't have the money. :(

I've been driving on cut springs and stock shocks for three years now so I'm sure anything will be an improvement.
TIA :)
