Default Recommend Spring Rates

I'm pretty set on getting these coilovers. I just need some recommendations on spring rates for the gurus here. I'm planning on 10k front ,8k rear. The car will primarily be a daily driver but I do spirited canyon runs every now and then and eventually do want to get started on tracking.

I'm planning to go 17x9, 255 all around, Eibach front bar (or another bar).

Thanks.

^ sounds good to me i would go a tad stiffer on the springs but thats just me.

car should feel pretty neutral on ur square set up considering ur running a stiffer front spring+ bar.

what year s2k?

after an initial shake down ull c what setting u need to set the front bar at or maybe get a softer rear bar like ap2 maybe even a mx-5 bar.

Yes. Larger front bar will compensate as needed.
