So i was told my 325i had 400f 700r gc's in it when i bought it. It has adjustable camber plates and offset cab's and adjustable koni's all the way around. Well come to find out i ended going with 6" springs because my 5" inchers out back kept bottoming out on this one damn drop on my way home from work everyday. Well when i went to switch in my new springs, i had mismatched 550 and 500 rear springs and not the 700's i was told. I am now looking to get new front springs to match the rear rates i bought. So from what ive read on here people would say that a 450 front with no rear bar would be a happy set up with a little bit of over steer? I don't have money for good sways right now and would just like to get the car set up right and ive read that 700 should be enough rear spring to not run a rear sway. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :D

You will have to ask him but from my understanding the fastest autoxer in an E30 has spring in back that MATCH the front....Something like 500/500, a 25mm front bar and no rear...
'may' be a 500, 600 with no bar....
Some things that you do up front will loosen the car up. The big front bar, camber plates and plenty of negative camber will make the car more prone to oversteersigpic

If I werre you I would save the most money by buying just ONE 550lb rear spring and matching that with your 450lb fronts...
Pick up a big bar for front roll resistance/camber control and your done...
If you track or autox the car I'd look for some camber plates to finish it off.sigpic

I have 5" 500# springs in back and I keep bottoming them out as well. I was thinking of running a 6" spring and going to a 600# rate to keep this from happening.
Then I started to look into rear coilover setups, and thats where the whole plan stopped...Comment

By bottoming what do you mean. The suspension should not be bottoming with those springs....Or are you hitting your tires with rear fender openings.sigpic
