You will notice that your outside front and rear tires are lifting at about the same rate. Ideally, you want as much rear traction as possible when auto crossing our cars. That means keeping those rear tires as connected to the pavement and getting the outside front tire to the point of lifting off the pavement.

I would suggest full stiff in the front and full soft in the rear. This would give you maximum grip when throttling out of corners. 0threefiftyz runs the massive Hotchkiss front bar and no sway bar in the rear. And he won the Tire Rack Solo Nationals in BSP.

I've won national events, not Nationals.....hopefully soon :).

I compensate with spring rate for the rear. It is still a little pushy, but you can get on the throttle so god damn early it is a worthwhile tradeoff.

315 A6's on all 4. -2.5 in front -2.3 in rear. I need more in the front, but I'll have to either make my own control arms (already have heavily offset bushings) or offset the lower arm some.

I'm thinking going Middle Front and Soft Rear might be a good starting point for Stillen Bars
