coilover/spring brand: Koni/GC with GC Extended top mounts 340f/250r

How do you like the ride with OTS GC spring rates? I'm debating a few different spring rates. 1. 400# 350# 2. 400# 450# 3. OTS rates

I love them. They handle awesome. I stuck with the ots rates cause a lot of the roads by me a terrible so a higher spring rate makes me wanna die haha.
For daily driving the ots rates are great. If you plan on tracking it at all definitely consider a higher rate. Your second choice is what I would go with if I was going to daily and track my car.
The only thing I wish had done was match the front and rear rates. I personally feel that 250 is a little too soft for my liking, a 350 or 400 would've been better.
One thing I definitely recommend is shelling out the extra for the extended top mounts. They allow you to go pretty low with out having any gap or sacrificing shock travel. And they look sweet.
G/C + Koni yellows, ITR sway bars and poly bushings all around makes for a really tight handling ride.
