I have a 2001 S60 t5. I am wishing to lower the ride height a little by fitting some different springs, but prefer not to go stiffer as the ride is already jiggly on bumps/potholes. I will be fitting new dampers too.
Question for tech buffs - I have noticed that as standard the later ('04-'05) cars ride lower than mine. Does anyone know how the spring RATES - not lengths- compare with a 2001 car??
Or know of any aftermarket springs which are shorter but not stiffer. Only 25mm or so
Thanks.

Too technical for me. Id have to call a manufacturer or a place like Tire Rack.
