It's a little late, but I thought I'd put this up here for anybody who may be interested. My Apex ExV's had 10/6 spring rates. The rear was way too soft. On moderate dips and bumps, I could hear my car hitting the bump-stops...and my car was not even close to slammed. After switching to 10/8, I was at least off the bump-stops. I know of 4 or 5 people with these coilovers, and I think all but one was experiencing the described problem.

I now have the GR+ with 12/10 rates now. On the softest setting, the ride is more firm than stock, but I wouldn't say it is excessively harsh. My 10 year old son has no complaints concerning harshness.

Here's a review by db84drteg http://my.is/forums/f89/stance-gr-co...review-373825/
