welcome to 3geez. the stickies will tell you all you need to know. As far as "perfect".. revalved bilstiens to the springs/coilovers exact spring rates is the only actual perfect setup for our cars. That can cost a pretty penny.

if you want perfect setup, well there is none. diff. people like diff springs. some like it stiff and some like it soft.
so it is all up to you, but when it comes to struts, your choice is very limited to revalved bilstein struts which are $650 + for all 4 of them.

It's not neccecary to use the revalved Bilsteins if you don't use the super-stiff coilovers that are available (DropZone are marginally harder than the Ground Control ones). If you use to stiff/short springs the ride will be bouncy at best for 2 days, and then your struts would be in need of replacement (due to bottoming-out-problems?).

You might be able to get different spring rates with the coilovers. Call DropZone or Ground Control and ask them!

watever you want..is up to you, but if you want good ride, Bilstiens struts is the only way to go ($650) like Alex (Shepherd) said.

Oyvind Ryeng- Sure he doenst have to use Bilstiens, but for PROPER struts bilstiens are the choice of weapon.
