I ran mine full soft until Autocross started, now I have them set about 70% stiff up front and 20% rear. Not too bad for daily driving with the rears soft. When I installed the Koni's I set them at 50/50 and that's too stiff in the rear for comfortable daily driving.

i read your post in another place about the 70/20. So it feels pretty balanced and less tendency to push at this setting? You have a front sway also, no? Do you think the front at 50 would be more comparable for a stock front sway?

Hard to say, the Eibach front sway was one of the first mods I made when I got my car a year ago. The sway really flattened out any roll during turns and it would probably take a lot of stiffness in the shocks to replicate that. 50 with OEM sway would not be as stiff at my setup, but would probably be a good starting point for you. Start with 50 front and full soft in the rear and go from there.
