I have been working with van steel seems super knowledgeable.. Way more than I'll probably be and he is suggesting to go with there Hyperco composite spring and I don't want to question his judgement like I said he is super knowledgeable I just keep reading coil overs coil overs.. Idk I want to pull the trigger and buy them I just wanted to know if any one has tried these leaf springs or if anyone has tried other leaf springs or if anyone has tried both after market set ups. I have jri DA shocks on the car already

Some are of the opinion that coil overs don't work as well with corvette geometry as they might with other makes. There are a lot of national run off winners on leaf springs. I am on might second stiff composite. I like 'em. Van Steel won't steer you wrong. Listen to him.

If you have DA JRi's on there now, I would not go to coilovers.

This is also for a track dedicated car not racing but my c6 z06 doesn't see the road. But I am not going to be changing any sort of spring rate for different tracks

I have T1 springs with JRI & it works nice.

Devens08

I watch ton of your videos frogy to funny that you would comment on this because I seen you had the t1 springs and was wondering how you would compare your run times to people with coil overs

I don't think coil overs are installed much on autox cars. So really don't know.

^THIS!!! Love my JRi's!!!

I would stick with the JRI shocks they sell the hardware to make them into a coilover just didn't know which way to go

Devens08, I trust what Paul at Vansteel has to say as well. I did what he suggested last time out, put a good driver in the car, and they set the track record in Nasa TT3 at Sebring. Now we just installed a front leaf from them and will be going at it again this weekend. He works with a lot of very good racers including Danny Popp and Jerry Onks-both on leafs as I understand it.
