Xida XL Exocet Question
Emilio or Dan, what spring rates for the Xida XL's do you guys recommend for a 1.8L turbo exocet? I'm guessing weight without driver is about 1500-1600 lbs.
I'm having some serious issues trying to get the ride height Emilio recommended with my current FM Vmaxx setup. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I cannot get the rear 10mm lower like you guys recommend. Even with the Exocet shock spacers on all four corners. I'm either hitting the half shafts in the rear or maxing out the collars in the front trying to get the damn ride height set.
I'm assuming the Xida XL's will fix this?

Spring rate requirements ultimately depends on your wheel and tire.
450/300 or 550/350 will be a good match assuming 100-200TW, 205-225 tires. GS also make for a good value on an Exocet.
Our test car had all four shock spacers, Xida XLs and plenty of height adjustability both directions with zero half shaft issues.

Awesome, thanks! Just wanted to confirm. I'm running your 6UL 15x10's with the Maxxis VR1 245/40/15's.
The difference between the GS and XL on the Exocet would be that the GS needs the Exocet shock spacers and the XL doesn't?
