That's quite a range in spring rates.
Ohlins 4k/3k
RCE 7k/7k
HKS 8k/8k

Given your plans I am thinking that 3k rear is too soft especially when taking motion ratio into account.

If I were living there I would take the RCEs any day for the following reasons (which are all gleaned from reading, no personal testing of any of these dampers).
1/ Feedback on these dampers has been very positive.
2/ RCE is in your general area (450 miles is nothing) and you won't appreciate local support until you need it.
3/ RCE have given tremendous support to this forum.
4/ The Tarmacs are 2-way adjustable. 2-ways take more time to dial in but the rewards are there once you do. It is not difficult (I am speaking from experience) and I think the extra effort worthwhile.
5/ Feedback on these dampers has been very positive.
