Default Gs300 with 20/18 or 18/16 spring rates?

Hello

Going to order bcracing extreme drop coilovers with one of the rates above to replace my pbm coilovers.

Anyone running a setup similar in SoCal? Want to feel what the ride is like before ordering

What is ur current setup? How low u gonna drive? I have 16/12 swift spring. I personally like it but some people think its too stiff.

20/18 and 18/16 wont make much difference. Just get 20/18 soft the ride a bit using the dampening.

I have 18/14 on my ISF and enjoy the ride. I have it on figs recommended settings 9/12 clicks from stiff. If you're trying to go really low I'd go at least 20/18.

extreme drop, you'll want the higher rates. the difference would be minimal and as stated you can soften via damping adjustment anyway.
