    350/475. I've been happy with it, but it may be a little too soft. I was told by Jay that the billies can't really handle much more than this though.

    500front/650rear with no rear bar, worked great in autocross. sold it to to switch to higher rates with the engine swap and wider/stickier tires.
    I will probably end up with rates similar to what z31maniac posted above.

    Car first had 300/475 - the setup GC has given a lot of street E30s.
    Then I got a set of 500/650 - was a lot faster around Auto-X course, have not been on a roadcourse yet. Of course stiffer, and more bouncey, but I have a blown strut.

    I'd go 350+ in front... with a 500 in back or so.

    The 350/500 was on the car when I got it.

    The 550/750 came about after a few different conversations with Jay and Frankie at Ground Control. Explained the engine (S52), sway bars (22/19), tires that would be used (sticky 235/40/17).

    And came to those rates, but with no rear bar.

    440/700 on my two coupes and 440/800 on the 'vert.

    For me this is the best combo for balance and comfort...firm but not harsh.

    The 318is, not sure, I'd have to ask the PO or take the wheels off, but I'm wanting to say something in the 325/475 range I think?

    300f 475r

    running them because that's what they had attached when I got them. Not a bad ride, old people complain but I think its nice.

    Switching it up to 600f 700r soon though.
