This is a really tough question. Although i would venture to say 450lbs i also dont think a 450 lb spring is very comfortable. My 350's are already plenty stiff and sometimes make me hate driving on the street. 300 or less would probably be better blending comfort and handling. Just my opinion.

See we have such a mix of people here....some are street drivers and some actually compete....What can we do to really split the difference?

Is there no way they would make one option for street use, and one option for the track? that way people could buy accordingly, depending on what their needs are?

All in all, if your dampening needs fall outside that range, custom valving is availble at a reasonable extra charge.
That should pretty much cover it!

Just my $.02 but I just drive on the street, so anything that would be a comfortable ride with more performance would be great. I am thinking something like 300 or less would be good. Heck, the stock 250 would be perfect.
