Talking Anyone have the weltmeister front springs..?

The non-adj s type fronts. The s-4 type are shorter to go with the front height adjusters. I am curious to know how low the front is with these installed (supposed to be about 1").

Any pics would be great; any "s" cars out there with the weltmeisters installed?

well I put the old Weltmiester 400lb spring kit on my 78 about 8 years ago. These were front and back put new Bilstiens all around also. Love them ride much better than stock. Firm around town but a real joy out on the highway above 70MPH. Ride hieght is 4 inches measured at the sub frame connector.

I have the Weltmeister's on all 4 corners. They advertised they would lower my 928 1", but my beofre and after measurements show they lowered me 1 1/2". I like that, although I hit more stuff now with my front spoiler. I Solo 1 this car - and the improvement in cornering is very noticable. I also have Koni's dialed up on all 4 corners and the S-type larger front swaybar.

Here are some pics of the Weltmeisters as they go in - and the finished product from the side. Now when I look at a stock 928 they all look too high!
