    Default best springs

    So what do you prefer for your suspension spring wise

    i had S.Low lovelles in the old eb and i used to go and try and loose it on corners..wouldn't happen the bloody thing stuck like glue, oh actually if it ever did break trac it was that predictible you could almost put it down to the second it was going to happen, i loved that setup.

    also just as an additional, what shocks did you find suited the springs best.

    It depends what you want them for. Lovells for handling, King Springs for ride in my opinion. I have both.
