I want to get the losi springs closest in rate to the stock ae springs (brown front and green back) I have highlighted the ones i think i need but i just wnt to make sure the spring rates are measured the same way.
Front b4.1 spring rates
• Two blue 4.20 lb. springs (#6497)
• Two silver 3.85 lb. springs (#6496)
• Two green 3.50 lb. springs (#6494)
• Two black 3.20 lb. springs (#8232)
• Two brown 2.80 lb springs (#6493)
Rear
• (2) Green 1.90 lb.
• (2) Silver 2.10 lb.
• (2) Blue 2.55 lb.
• (2) Gold 2.75 lb.
• (2) Red 3.03 lb.

3.5 Rate/Green

I don't quite understand how Cav is using a spring rate which is completely off from what is noted above.
White KYO front BB - 3.72 spring rate vs. AE Brown 2.80 lb springs
Gold KYO rear BB - 2.50 spring rate vs. AE Green 1.90 lb.
Has anyone tested the spring rates of the BB vs. standard to see if its a 1:1?
