There's different ways of going about it. Typically you adjust the springs first, then using sways to dial in driving preference but you can also go square and use the sways to dial in over/under. Other than extreme high performance, finicky cars both setups work more or less the same for occasional track people.

Personally, I prefer running what the OP ran with a 1k difference between the 2 springs and add even sway setting. To each their own, setup is really based on driving style. If it's DD for street, a spring rate of 7/8 or 6/7 seems to be just fine.

With the DSG Editions, DD was what we had in mind for the most part anyway, but still aggressive enough for the track. If you do plan on tracking relatively often during the season but still DD, 9k square is a good choice
