Well, 400lbs didn't seem like much to me at first, but looking at a load capacity of 1058lbs it is significant, that and the fact it is close to 440lbs with the specs from the book.

I realize the xi is about 220 pounds heavier than the i, but should I be overly concerned about this? Is this possibly why the Eibachs ride softer than the H&R's (because they're more compressed at all times)?

I typically never ride with a lot of people or cargo in my car, but I don't want to have to be worried about this is in the future. Let me know if this is a legit concern or if I'm just being worrisome.
