Ride height + Stiffness with staggered wheels?

I am running 285 x 35 x 18 rear & 245 x 40 x 18 in the front

I have no clue what to even search for in regards to my question so hopefully someone will point me in the right direction.

What is the best way to set my coil overs (ride height + stiffness) so that I will get the most balanced feel?

I know that is a very general question but I need some input so I can make my own inferences.

Right now, I have the rear of the car raised a bit higher than the front (to put more weight towards the front) and I made the front coil overs stiffer (8:15) and the rear coil overs a bit softer (4:15).

Read Howard Coleman's thread. You should find your answers there. Howard recommends 25" all around for ride height, ground to top of the fender arch. For setting up coilovers, it just depends on what kind of coilovers you have. Just set it to suit your driving style and comfort level you want.
