hello peter. i was running 10"x350lb springs on custom adj.perches. much too soft. switched to 450lbs and was better. battery was located in the rear. rear had stock ipd lowering springs. never weighed the car but it was fairly light. don't know what kind of ride you're looking for, but i wouldn't hesitate to put 450's or 500's on my streetcar.
