I'm looking at a set of ACS type I but I need some stiffer spring rates in the rear to accommodate the 10" rears. The coilovers are KW V3 and I'm wondering if a 600lb spring in the rear will be enough?

id say you are close to if not, at the valving limitation of those kw shocks. so with a 600lb spring it may be stiff enough for your application, but under-damped, thus being counterproductive in trying to achieve stiffening up the rear.
you also have to take into consideration how much your fenders are rolled and how low you plan to be.Originally posted by KielanI've had a lot more fun in my Dad's Prius than I care to admit.

just figure out the inside diameter of the spring on there now and get the appropriate linear spring. hyerco makes 2.25" and 60mm springs. either one of those should fit on the perch. the only thing you need to ask KW is the maximum spring rate you could run on those shocks.Originally posted by KielanI've had a lot more fun in my Dad's Prius than I care to admit.
