Default Spring Source - Sachs Shocks

Anyone know where I can get some springs for the 6Cup Sachs shocks? Seem to be an odd size.
1o0mmx60mm = 3.9"x2.36"
130mmx60mm = 5.1"x2.36"
Can you use 2.25" or 2.5" springs with stock perches?
How much longer with fit too?

TIA

Hi John:

Talk to Christian he put softer than stock springs on his '05 with Sachs. I beleive he got them through Wright Motorsports.

Thanks
I have a whole bunch of 6"x2.25" springs I was hoping would fit. I'll give them a try.

My 2.25" would not fit 60mm perch.

H&R has 60mm you're looking for. I think I bought mine from Bimmerworld. See link below and go down to race springs catalog.

Yes it's H&R. Nobody has inventory on them, but the factory in WA has them all.

Fronts are 60x100
Rears - factory 60x130, but they only offer 60x120 or 60x140 which is not a big deal.

I also have a bunch of 2.25" springs if what you have does not fit.
They are leftover sets from my old Koni Challenge 996.

I ran across these guys a while back. Haven't used them, but they have 60 mm springs.
