Would u plz tell me that whether the full soft setting is much stiffer than regular lowering spring or stock? its my DD car so just dont want it too stiff.

@Moto-P And will I feel better with these coilovers? I know stiffer suspension may make these new tires less gripy and offer me a feeling like factory setting or even easier to kick my rear out.

Thanks!!
I run the same tires as you and don't have any problems getting the tail out if I want to. You have more grip so it's prettyy straightforward that it'll be a little harder to break traction that way.

I found that adjusting the toe in the rear to 0 degrees (instead of toe in) had much more influence in terms of getting the car to rotate than playing around with the damper settings.

For drifting I just pump the rears up to ridiculous psi and go for it (or better yet - drift rubber).

YMMV.
