B14’s ride better when loaded

[kn0bby]

So need to get my van riding better..

I have B14s as low as they will go.

I was on 20’s, now on banded 18’s 255/45. Was told it would ride better but it’s almost worse.

When loaded at the rear 100-200kgs above the rear axles it rides so much better.

Before I go raising the suspension a bit, am I wasting my time?

Thanks.

The more weight you add will make the B14s even more coilbound.

This is mine loaded and not loaded. It’s only 150kgs I guess over the rear axel.

Do I raise up or will it make it worse.

I dont think raining it or lowering will have any effect on how coil bound it is. The best option is to swap out the springs for a better one.
