This will give you an area on your spring with very low springrate that will let the car sit a bit lower but still keep the spring captive at full extension. The trouble is that you would need a lot of these windings if you want 8kg/mm, leaving the part of the spring that does all the work with little travel.

Yes, you’re right about custom springs. But, it’s very hard to make it right from one go, especially if you don’t have coil-overs to correct the desirable ride height. You have to put them on several times and to fix them again and again every time to achieve perfection. It takes time and money.

Fun is not the straight line!
