Have a look at the link in this post http://www.oople.com/forums/showpost...32&postcount=5

What you're after should be in there

Blue = Hard

Yellow = Medium

Red = Soft

I think the Petit RC spring chart has some measured rates - http://www.petitrc.com/reglages/BuggySpringChart.pdf

They springs aren't particularly stiff, I think the blue's are roughly equivalent to AE silvers, yellows are like AE greens, reds are like AE blacks.

Spring rates are as follows,

Front,

Tamiya Red dot = 3.17 Associated black = 3.2
Tamiya Yellow dot = 3.58 Associated green = 3.5
Tamiya Blue dot = 3.8 Associated silver = 3.8

Rear

Tamiya Red dot = 1.77 Associated black = 1.74
Tamiya Yellow dot = 1.84 Associated green = 1.9
Tamiya Blue dot = 2.02 Associated silver = 2.1

just wondering if it was possible to run ae springs on tamiya shocks?are the correct diameter,length?

[craigosh]

Work fine on mine.. I have AE blue springs on the front shocks. If anything they fit a tad better as the Tamiya ones rub a little I find.

+1 I run AE Blues on the front too as I wanted something a bit harder up there, they fit great!

just a quick question to those of you running AE Blue front springs, what rear springs are you running?

[MHeadling]

AE Silver on the rear seems to work for me

Silver on rear but try silver fronts and green rears. I find this to work very well on most surfaces...
