AST 5100 coilovers - spring diameter and lengths needed
I'm going to replace the 10k/14k springs on my car with 7k/12k.
Does anyone know the correct ID mm and lengths required (front and rear)? Car is in storage so I can't go measure... Thanks!

Should be 60mm. My old 4100s ran a 60mm setup. I run 7" front and 9" rear with helper springs to maintain tension when suspension is not under load. Some places run 6" springs up front but that for me is too short a spring and I had the lower perch all the way up.

Well, the fronts can be either 7 or 8" and the rear 9 or 10" at 60 mm ID. Depending what height adjusters you use, the ID may be 65 mm as well.
