If it seems the 300G rear springs are similar dimensions to 300D, anyone know are 300C same as 300D, and reason for my question - has anyone put 300G rear springs in either 300D or 300C, to get firmer rear springs?! Of course, this would only work if 300G springs sit your 300D or 300C at same ride height !!? My 300Cs have always felt that they would corner better when driven real hard through corners, and the 300Gs stronger deflection rates could help here I believe, but they may rattle body and occupants too much on poorer roads. Christopher in Australia - shocking drought in southern part of nation now into 3rd record breaking year - spring rains here only 1/6 average, record lowest in over 150 years, but gas prices finally coming down near 110c a litre, about $4.50 a US gal. And Christmas only now weeks away, my supercharged 300C going into body shop after that as finish two other quicker cars (work wise!?) before then. Our aussie dollar has slipped shocking versus USD $$, now near into high 50s vesus aussie being near 98c to USD 100 just weeks ago, and yet our economy supposed to be world's best to survive the current 'mess' - figure that ?? No point even looking on US EBay for 300 bits, as with postage plus USD it works out triple !!!
