Put me in line, assuming you can provide more information. Can these be used in a street application? I did a quick google search and found very little.
Thank you

Weltmeister is the original brand Performance Products owned back in the day. The 180s are good for a 914-6 or a car with wider tires and aggressive driving.

I bought this set for my 914-6 with a 3.0 engine but then realized I had already bought them so they're just duplicates.

The progressive spring makes them softer for better ride but they get significantly stiffer as they compress. Hope that is enough info.

PM me if you want the set. Thanks

These are pending sold, thanks.

I run these on my 73 and they are perfectly smooth & comfortable for street use.

I have had these on my car since i bought it 20+ years ago, paired with a 21mm front weltmeister swaybar. fine on the street as long as you have decent control arm bushings. Feel like the 21mm swaybar may even be a little much for them, pushes a little more than i would like. Going to try softening up the front of the car a little when it goes back together

Could you measure the diameter of the wire used to make these springs? Not the coil diameter just the wire. Thanks.

I’m pretty sure I have a new pair of the same springs. I’ll check tonight. PM me if interested
