Gen4 coil springs on Gen3

Hi All.

Quick question - I fitted a nearly new set of Gen4 springs on my Gen3. My car now sits better and rides better. When doing the swap over I noticed the Gen4 springs have fewer turns in the coil of each spring, and they do seem to compress a little more quickly than the old Gen3's. Is that my imagination or simple physics and to be expected? I regularly carry loads in the back or in a roof box, so maybe I would have been better fitting new Gen3 spings?

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers,

MattHE
