On pic, all springs are loaded and helper is fully compressed.
All this should look like this on car, with car standing on its wheels.

For me, this looks it will be just fine.
80kg is a bit on the high side, good for track car with stiffened chassis, not so for daily/road use.

thanks uzelac, my car is at the shop now. he said that setup should be ok, eventually I can soften the spring by lowering the ring nuts, correct?

what about the camber plates? do I need those or I should I remove them? I don't even know what' they are for...I won't be using the car on circuits, mostly for sunday drives in the countryside.

oh yes and about these springs; I got them for cheap in japan but they are cut. the guy at the shop was almost horrified when he saw them...should I be worried for some reason?
