fwiw I didn't experience any significant increase in NVH with my camber plates (Raceseng) aside from a minor rubbing of the spring perch at full lock over bumpy pavement (shit parking lot). The stock top hats are remarkably stiff compared to the other bushes on the car.

I think so, I could use helpers on my 8" springs up front right now, but I'm not going super low because I'm prioritizing maintaining suspension geometry.
But why are you doing this? To go lower?
I won't try and pontificate about the bumpstop as I don't have a great understanding of the reality of all the variables at play yet.
But I will say this, it sounds like you can technically go lower on the fronts but don't because you want to have the springs pre-loaded. I say go max low in the front, yeah springs will be free but it's just a test, if that's too low you might be able to use the springs you have now and just add helpers. Note that if it's harsh because of the bump stop, changing spring rate will only have a minimal impact on comfort up front unless you alter the bump stop again.
If you slam it and still want to go lower (and are ok with the harshness if the bump stop is in play) then you'll need to get a shorter spring and I would say helpers are a must.
