In response to the q on spring rates, 6k front, 8k rear:tup:

I believe right around 10.5kf 11k rear is great for performance....based on my experimentation...will depend on ride height and your goals tho

Awesome, thanks for the info. I think whatever I end up getting is going to be dependent on how much money I can save, and how patient I can be. I haven't even made a car payment yet haha.
