    Has anyone found a source for aftermarket springs for the GT4? Or does anyone know the spring rates so I can match them up? Mine are extremely low and while it looks fantastic it is not practical to leave them on, my wheels rub going over the slightest bumps. I think they are $150 pounds each from the owners site and I don't want to risk buying a used set. Thanks!

    Thanks Dom, that was taken at Mosport last year by a very talented young photographer who is on this site named Lucas. You can see lots of his stuff in the Canada section.

    Jay you car looks great.I recently rebuilt the suspension including new front,recoed rear shocks,all suspension bushes and steering rack rebuild.I had the springs tested for there rating and they were still in spec.My car is very low as well and only rubs if I take a speed hump to fast.Occasionally the rear tyres will rub depending on the bumps but not as much as they used to.Anyway here is a link to the question I asked as well regarding spring rates.(actually its a link from a link of my question)http://www.ferrarichat.com/discus/messages/256120/199158.html

    I have had mine lowered using uprated springs bought @QV London. But Superformance also do uprated lowered springs at a reasonable price. I had a slight rubbing on rear wheels due to going to 16" and widening the track. However I have made some spacers up and this has solved the problem.
