New Coil Over Kit Released Today!!!!!

[Dreamin]

I plan on dropping mine 2.25" front and 2.5" rear.

Here is the SEMA car with this kit w/ 20" wheels... i'm *guessing* this is a 2" drop... The car would look lower if it had 18" wheels:

[CTS-V420]

Jeremy,

Do you have 750lb front 650lb rears available? The car is going down over 2.5" and I want a stiff spring so the wheels aren't jamming up in the wheel wells.

Still waiting on a wheel hop answer??? Think he will help??

It's been pretty well proven that springs/shocks dont help wheel hop

[atdeneve]

I thought Penske shocks were supposed to totally eliminate the wheel hop. Wasn't it Mallett that went this route? Although, if I'm not mistaken they won't sell it individually outside of their whole package deal. Hell, I thought Damian was also going to provide a Penske option to get rid of wheel hop, but it seems he went a different route.

Personally, if the Penske setup provided a remedy for the wheel hop, regardless of whether it was 2-3 grand, that would be my first pick. I mean, it kills two birds with one stone - no wheelhop and improved suspension set up - both of which, I want. And even at that price, it's still a couple grand cheaper than the other intensive cradle reworkings, that do truly and completely remove wheelhop (not talking about Kars or BMR here; either the Madman diff - which, in actuality, isn't even available - or Damian's offering).

So, what happened to the Penske option? And does it truly address the wheelhop? Or am I mistaken? C'mon. What's the dildo?

[TrazzNJ]

Yea, I know spring rate would work and I remember the Mallet/Penske deal and heard that it worked. I was hoping the manufacturer would answer.

Let me ad my 0.02 here if I may. Depending on how or where you plan on driving I would do some experimenting with spring rates before jumping into 750 front and 650 rear etc. Granted I am running heavy rates, 750 frnt and 800 rear but that combo works gr8. As long as my tire pressure is set right the car doesn't overstear at all.

I have tried my set up 800 frnt and 750 rear before, just yesterday in fact at sears point. Terrible, more dangerous that any set-up I have driven. The car pushed so bad i was 1.5 car lengths out from were I would be with the other set-up. Lap times were at least 10 sec off if not more. In my mind the heavier rated spring goes in back probably up to as much as 1,000# rates. (best guess)

Looks like a gr8 set-up otherwise.
Very clean!

thanks

Thanks RGD, looks like I'll be switching my spring rates around!

Mallett's penske shocks do not fix wheel hop... he has a separate kit for that called a "Mallett rear wheel-hop stabilizer system"... check it out on his website: http://www.mallettcars.com/ctsv-conv...htm#suspension

...still waiting for the magical penske shocks or springs that cure wheel hop...
