Jamex Springs

Anybody got experience using Jamex springs?

I've found a little bit of information on them.
I know that they are manufactured in Holland and that they use the highest grade SiCr steel to make the springs. I even emailed them on (www.jamex.nl) but they say they can't give out there spring rates which I think is all BS.

The ones I have are for the 92-95 Sedan application which will lower the car 50mm (1.9") in the front and 50mm (1.9") in the rear. The rear springs are Progressive and the fronts are Linear.

This is all the info I could find on these springs.

I really just want to know the spring rates of these springs.

My goal is to get a softer spring rate so I could use these on my daily driver. I would probably just pair them up with a set of KYB GR-2's or Tokico Blues. Not sure on which shock to go to and not really looking to build a track car. Just want something that will perform similar to stock without the body roll.

Any info would be good.
Thanks!

i had a set of them about 5 years ago. they were rated for 1 3/4 " drop. They sagged about another 2.5 inches after that. They are crap, do not buy them. Save your money and buy better springs liike Eibach, Neuspeed, H&R or if you want coilovers, Ground Control. Don't cheap out on springs. I found out the hard way, you get what you pay for.

Hey don't get me wrong, I ain't no butcher so I know that with suspension you pay for what you get. I was just wondering because I had these springs donated to me for free and if its free why not give it a try.

I'll give these springs a shot probably with a set of KYB agx's and if I don't like them, I'll probably go with the Eibach Pro-Kits because the springs rates on those are more in line with what I'm looking for my daily driver.
