So, I'm about to order these but... Harold from HPA said they don't recommend spring rates higher than 336/672. Do you still think that 448/784 is appropriate for my application or should I be a bit more conservative to avoid possible regret?

Also, as much as I want to increase the neutrality of the car, I don't want to go so far that I risk snap oversteer situations on the street that might be exacerbated in limited traction situations like in the rain. I've heard that the H&R can cause this snap oversteer... do you think that is a justifiable concern or will my other mods overcome that? I'd rather sacrifice a little balance in the name of safety if need be, especially since I can always adjust the shocks and the tire pressure but not the sway bar once it's on.

I think I'll get the optional thrust sheets just to be on the safe side.
