This is probably a long shot, but does anyone have a couple 70mm (2.75") ID, 150mm (6") long 9kg/mm (500lb/in) springs?

Oh, I didn't know we had a local one of these.

I have a set of 14kg/mm (783 lb/in) 2.5" ID springs, I have to measure the length.

Probably looking to get under 600 lb/in, but I gotta call Bilstein first and have a chat.

Anyone happen to have a 2.5"ID x 7" x 700lb set of springs laying around?  Possible trade for brand new 650lb/in Eibachs.....I need just a bit more springs, might even consider 750lb.    :-\

Let me double check how many turns I have left on the sleeves, but my first inclination is that 6" will work.  I'll get back to you this afternoon mark.

Mark was just afraid of those 700 pounders on the back of the neon. Think it was a tad much at beaver but at nelson that is the rate

hey all, I haven't been around lately ... but I picked up a new toy and now an old itch is coming back and it's getting harder and harder to ignore.  I'm trying to clean out the house a bit here before I start to think about anything new ...  :-X

I have:

Eibach ERS
2x 0800.250.0400
2x 0700.250.0500 

These are left over from my 96 civic but can probably fit other cars of course. 400 front 500 rear, stiff but not really so bad, _great autox setup on that car that was still kind of daily driveable. 

I also have the Eibach pro kit lowering springs from my 05 impreza RS.  These will fit any imprezas from 02-07 I believe.  Gave it a nice drop with not really any noticeable change in ride quality...

Both sets have just been sitting here for years, so these would be free to a good home. 

I also have a set of General Altimax Arctic snow tires 205/55/16 .. not really sure how much tread is left, I can look, but I figure there's got to be enough for another winter.

I am looking for two 250# x 2.5" diameter x 7" long if anyone has any.  I have two 550# x 2.5 x 6" and two 375# x 2.5 x 6" if anyone is interested.  I may have two 600# x 2.5 x 7" available as well.

If you want them within the next week and half, I can get them to Pittsburgh at not cost and you just need to pick them up.
