Definitely progressive springs - not standard "straight" coilover springs. Not sure you'll find anything out there to substitute.

Try contacting Casten at KW and see if they can overnight you the right spring. I worked with him on some issues I had with my V3's on my TT and actually visited the plant here in CA. Not sure if he's still there though......

Thanks for everyone's help! KW is looking for an alternative spring that's in stock, fingers crossed! They seem like they have great customer support.
