Actually the company name is kg/mm and I believe these are one of the stiffest springs you can get without going to coilovers. The drop is quite low too, 2.2 front/1.2 rear.

kg/mm springs are not easily available in the US and generally must be special ordered from Japan. S2000 drivers reputedly love them, but I haven't seen too much feedback from 240 drivers. When compared to my S14 with Tein HE coilovers, these were stiff without being bone jarringly uncomfortable.

They worked very well and were used with Tokico HTS shocks for drift events at Irwindale, California Speedway, Buttonwillow, Thunderhill, Altamont, and Infineon.

They are used and a little dirty but I cleaned them up as best I could. Please see pictures for the actual springs and how the drop looks on a 93 hatchback. Note that the springs also come with a rubber wrap where it rests on the perch to minimize noise.

Priced for quick sale, $80 shipped, $70 picked up in Fremont, SF Bay Area.

SOLD thank you.

Miles/use doesn't matter. Springs won't wear out unless you're going off jumps in 2000 degree weather

I wanted a softer ride on the car that's become my daily driver, so I swapped. OK so I pandered to complaints from a girl :P Anyway, I believe they've been through around 10 events and 20-30k miles.

But like n1sm0r said, unless you go off roading or something, springs don't usually wear out unless there's something wrong with the design or material used. kg/mm is a reputable Japanese company that does stuff for JGTC, F1, and CART I believe.
