If it rubs, more of a tire/wheel fitment issue than spring/shock rates.

they should ride better than the stechs, i had eibachs and my BCR coilovers when on full soft ride barely a little bit stiffer than the eibachs. from what ive heard, the stechs are harsher than the eibachs. like someone said, it depends on the springs, I got 10f/8r.. but most people get 12/8

Standard is 10f/8r, which most people end up getting.

Did you put on the BC coilovers? How do you like the difference?
