If you talk to Sam about it he would tell you the BMR springs have no info on spring weghts ( at tleast the time I talked to him ). I got my set up before the Strano springs came out and he advised me the best would prob be the Hotchkis so thats the set-up I have with koni sa's. Love it! Have heard bad things about eibach.
