Matt, I had it backwards. I was thinking 1 inch spring height equals 2 inch at the car, equaling 4 inches. One inch would not be too bad. They are heavier and the same diameter. I was a little concerned they would be rough riding as they are heavier coils. I was going to mic them and get the difference.
I did submit my info to get a quote from Coil Springs Inc., but now you've got me thinking.........
