The formula made me realise that 300 / 250 spring rates are correct for a 1" lowering of the b14 chassis like Mike has formulated.

When I did the calculation for 2", the spring rates are ridiculous. talking about at least 450/350 ideal 500/400.

Finding shocks for that is going to be expensive, and the stiff ride couldn't be udeful on streets.

Tein BASIC, Hyperco and so on are simply the only budget route to take.

I'm not even sure if coil spacers would work to raise other lowering springs to improve travel because our springs aren't flat and springs spacers generally require springs with flat ends..
