Anybody got any lowering springs for a 83 80 quattro b2

anything considered

not sure if any other models use the same, so any info on this would be a bonus.

also any advice if others have changed them before on the same model

cheers guys

I've a pair of front -60mm (I think) springs in a fetching shade of red....

I've used the rears are at the front on my motor (they are actually a higher spring rate, which is what I need)
I think fronts are 125lb/in, rears 150lb/in

At the back I'm using some V6 coupe springs (and same dampers all around) as they seem to be about the same rate and length - V6 coupe dampers are shorter than standard too and seem to be on the money (and cheap as standard gas shocks at GSF etc...)

How do these differ to fwd springs?

I'll have a pair of fwd -70mm spare soon...

I'm trying to free up the rears but need some mk2 golf coilovers first, but then I guess they are different too being fwd??
