urgent - spring compression
What is ballpark figure for the amount the rear springs should compress from unloaded to loaded?
(SVA rear axle 282 kg).
2 inches sound about right?
So spring rate of 150 lb ins?
<<-- this is unsprung weight so sprung weight that is acting on the spring is about 200 kg; i.e. less axle, wheels, brakes,tyres) - should I be
looking at even softer springs? 150 seems a bit low...

My live axle car has 150lb rear springs.
Total weight was 565kg at SVA.
