This weekend I did a 600km round trip and did some camping with mine, with my wife and I in the car, and full of our camping gear I had about 1" of travel in the front, with the struts in the highest position!
For some reason over at superbeetlesonly forum, there is talk that anything over 80lbs/inch is way too harsh for the street, and 100lbs is downright dangerous. Then again I also have a big radiator up front.
Now I'm faced with what springs to go with, and then if going higher spring rate in the front should the rear be increased also?
Buggin_74, It looks like we're in the same boat, I'd be happy with about another 1/2" of ride height. I was just surprised how much these springs settled since new.
