Springs / Rates for Coilover kit

For a street car, forget the spherical stuff. The lack of rubber to isolate the bumps will have you regretting the installation of spherical bearings.
For a track car, they're great.

The spring rates I have are probably about the upper limit for a street driven FB, given the prevailing road conditions in Ok, so your experience may vary.
The car can feel a little twitchy on the rougher sections of the twisties, but is great most of the time.
I don't have aftermarket sways, and I only have KYB GR2 struts/shocks. Both of these are factors in how my car rides/handles. I don't have camber plates, either.
