What benefits would I see by also upgrading the rears to radflos

[jcmiro]

I just purchased the radflo front 2.5" adjustable reservoir coil overs and Im thinking of maybe just upgrading the whole package and getting the rears also. I currently have bilsteins in the rear and have no complaints. I was wondering if the suspension gurus can chime in to convince or sway me.

If you push the vehicle hard, you may find the rear will no longer keep up with the front.

Brian -

To clarify, I am assuming that you mean that running Radflo fronts and Bilstein rears, the rear will not keep up with the front, correct?

Sam, yes, you have that correct. The smaller damper out back simply doesn't have the power or capacity to match the front.

Great. Just bought the rear Radflo adjustable ressies. Thanks for your help

Figured as much ... just the pre-coffee state of mind needed clarification

To me....buy only fronts or rears is like buying one one new sneaker..... Better in pairs

I only asked because I see the majority of people with suspension mods with coilovers in the front and medium OME springs in the rear.

Ummm really? Interesting

Disregarding OME of course. I live in a 3rd world country, OME doesnt even factor into my decision. My spine wouldn't hold up with the jolts. Search icon, fox, king, radflo and the majority I find have the front on coilovers and the rear on upgraded springs.
