I have my gab,s at 7 back 5 front. I don't mind the ride too much 5 and 3 was kinda cushy. 7 and 5 suits my driving best. Depends on what you want.

Since my car oversteers, like all any 93' w stock swaybars and springs, I set my Super R's at 5 front, and 3 rear for autocross applications. This helps make the car neutral during weight transfer during cornering.

For street crusing, I set them all at 1 for a smooth ride.

Not really sure why RedR2 is stiffer in the rear, but maybe you are after something different??

Good luck!

I agree, you want your front to be stiffer then the rear. That way your car will handle better.

I run my super R's - 4 in the front and 2 in the rear. But i have coilover springs. Eibach 550 front and 450 rear spring rates. A long time a ago, Jeff from M2 (doesnt work there any more) told me to always keep the fronts higher by 2. He actualy recomended only these combinations: 5f-3R, 4f-2r, or 3f-1r. Kinda like hard - med - soft.

btw, he also recomended not to use the super R's without a coil over conversion, he said they "dont work anywhere as good with regular springs"
