"The DF210 coil spring offers a large drop, while retaining superb ride quality characteristics. The spring rate is raised 10-15% to compensate for the shortened amount of suspension travel, without over stiffening the spring rate and affecting ride quality and shock lifespan."
Fact is, specs that show the DF210 coupe spring is Stiffer or softer then oem springs by F-2% R+3% , hardly 10 to 15 percent stiffer.
I will change the rear DF210 coupe rear lowering spec to reflect 1.3" of rear drop.

FYI
for info on Silk Road

standard spring rates : 10kg (F)/8kg (R).
you can also spec your spring rate
They're like the JIC FLA-2 coilovers but cheaper and quality build is much better than JIC's.
