Losi springs
The rear springs are a little too short but that can be cured using J Concepts offset spring cups or similar.
The fronts are too long but again with careful selection of the lower spring seat it is possible ..... just!
AE springs are a bit too small in diameter and drag on the threads on the bodies and also don't sit well on either spring platform.
You won't need many springs and if you go for Kyosho you can share set-ups with others!
IMHO you can go racing with just the following springs.
ZX5 Front
light yellow (#65)
Kit silvers (#70) ..... (98% of the time that is what you'll find on the front of my car)
ZX5 Rear
blue (#68) ..... (99% of the time these on ZX5-FS)
kit silvers (#70) ..... (98% of the time these on ZX5/ZX5-SP)
cobalt / purple (#72)
RB5 Front
#70 silvers (more or less fit and forget)
#75 lime green
RB5 Rear
blue (#68)
kit silvers (#70) ..... (99% of the time these on RB5)
cobalt / purple (#72)
This is on grass / astroturf / multi surface traces.
