European springs

Post by clipto »

Hi guys,

I'm planning to lower my spider and was wondering... I currently own a Spider and it has no bumpers.
With the original American springs it's just a bit too high.
Now I can buy some European springs, but just to make sure they're not American... does anybody know the sizes of the springs, European and American in normal condition, so not mounted/pressed?

Thanks in advance!

Most of the difference in springs is due to the heavy US bumpers compared to the chrome ones.
But there's no one who can give me the correct sizes so I can decide if it's usefull for me buying them?
If they're the same as the ones I have now, it's not usefull ofcourse.
