That would make perfect sense flavorPacket and would be the perfect application of the "wedge" method. See... we agree on something.

Maybe we do... but lots of trackday guys think that corner balancing a car will improve handling because weight is 'better' distributed. This is a misconception. Changing spring preload does not change where mass is positioned in the car, and will not produce the same handling changes as actually moving the CG. In some cases it can even produce an opposite effect (ie you setup the car 'heavy' on the rear and then lose rear grip).
