Unspring weight is weight that is not supported by the springs on the car. The most obvious example would be the wheels tires. The complete rear axle would be another component that is unsprung weight. Im going to guess that the front a-arms and spindle assembly also fall into this

I think youll find three basic choices 160, 180, and 195. Personally, Ive always used 180s, and like the previous poster, have done so for 15 years. I think 160 is a little cool for full temp, but thats me. Youd do fine with either. 195 is a common OEM thermostat temp, I believe.
