I was like a kid on Christmas eve opening this last night. I'm still about 3 weeks away from being able to install these, but i am so tempted to just do it after work.

post pics when you install them. I've read the highest setting still sits very low.

This is the reason i went with the longer 230mm rear springs. The standard springs are 210mm. I did not want to aggressively dump the car for daily driving so that was a deciding factor. They all go as low as needed for track duty so it's the best of both worlds for me.

If it's for track duty, 23/30 would be a good stiffness rating but i would not suggest maxing it out (the rears esp) for daily driving. It will be rough and you'll be accelerating the wear on the dampers.
