Only 15 or 20% stiffer than stock. I think they are 350 or 375# for the front. I have 580# on my TR3 racer. The ride and handling is great, even on the street. It's firm, but not harsh. </div><div><br></div><div>Dave H.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><hr id="zwchr"><div style="color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;"><b>From: </b>john-marie@sbcglobal.net<br><b>To: </b>"davehogye" <dlhogye@comcast.net><br><b>Sent: </b>Thursday, June 8, 2017 7:34:32 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [TR] TR4A springs<br><div><br></div><div>Dave,</div><div id="AppleMailSignature">Thanks for the info on Revington.
