Many of our customers are looking to buy\u00a0coilovers or lowering springs for their car. Half of the manufacturers show their spring rates as kg\/mm while others show them as lbs\/in. It\u2019s easy to forget what the conversion is so we put together a quick and easy chart to use for reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roughly 1 KG\/mm is equal to 55.997 LBS\/in. Easy way to remember is 1 KG\/mm = 56 LBS\/in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a few quick charts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

700 lb\/in = 12.5 kg\/mm
650 lb\/in = 11.6 kg\/mm
600 lb\/in = 10.7 kg\/mm
550 lb\/in = 9.8 kg\/mm
500 lb\/in = 8.9 kg\/mm
450 lb\/in = 8 kg\/mm
400 lb\/in = 7.1 kg\/mm
350 lb\/in = 6.2 kg\/mm
300 lb\/in = 5.3 kg\/mm
250 lb\/in = 4.5 kg\/mm<\/p>\n\n\n\n
