8k is really stiff up front and the front to rear ratio is too high which will cause it to pitch a lot.

6k/12k is a good balance as is 5k/15k

Ended up going with 6k/12k soo we'll see how the cat feels when I get it back next week. Out of curiosity what spring rates would 70 n/mm (400 lbs) and 120 n/mm (685 lbs) be? That's the spring rate for an Ohlins Coilovers set specific for high hp E92s.

There are lots of charts you can use to convert, looks like that's roughly 7k/12k
