Can somebody explain why Yoko springs are used so popular over Serpent spring combos? Thanks,
They're a bit longer than the Serpent springs. With the collars all the way up, I can just get it to around 5mm ride height so it works fine. I don't know why they're so popular. I see a lot of pros running the Yokomo combo on several different cars, so I tried them and liked them. It does feel quite similar to Serpent white/grey.
