Default RSR Titanium Springs

I think I am going to get the RSR titanium springs. Who has these and what do you think?

I have installed a set on a Z and tested it. Felt like reduced body roll. I don't daily drive a Z so I don't know the nuances of the suspension and how it was changed by the Ti2000 springs. The sure are a lot lighter than regular springs, should help the unsprung mass.

I have them . . .they are not that much lighter. There is only a little Ti in them compared to the other components in their composition (carbon, tin, magnesium, copper, chrome, nickel, and vanadium). The 2000 stands for the tensile strength which is 2015 compared to their other springs which are 1985.

They did reduce body roll and helped with the bounce. It lowered my car pretty much exactly .6" all around. I am very happy with them.

I guess it is a definition.. - the springs are outside of the upper and lower A arms inside attachment point.. they would affect the weight teh same as having heavy tires or heavy rotors and Brakes...

Cheers Amy -

Question I'm thinking about getting a set of Front StopTech's 332

As heavier than stock - this would increase my un-sprung wieght..

Yes - No ?

Cheers Amy -

lol yea what Amy said. This topic could be interpreted so many ways, I wouldn't even start to argue it. Bottom line is I am less tired after moving a pallet of Ti2000 springs than regular RS*R race springs or down springs
