Hey spitfire,

Yup, got 6kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm rear. But that is also the reason I swapped my normal koni's for Tokico HTS short strokes.

You can drive with this setup and KONIs just fine, I did so for a long while, however you have to keep in mind that you can run into bump problems and you will have the springs come loose when your car is off the ground.

I would say the max spring rate you can use without having fitment problems would be around 3kg/mm front, 2kg/mm rear but I haven't tried so I wouldn't know for sure.

oldeskewltoy mentioned a nice solution in here:

I might try that with my rear since I still have koni in the rear.

Greetz,
