But our AX is different in that you see 70 to 90mph quite often on our local AX venue.
In addition, CSG Mike knows I favor a car with rotation. I believe the BRZ understeers quite a bit, so that is why the chosen spring rate is what it is. It combined with further suspension tweaking was going to give a sharper handling car. We were just getting started in setting this BRZ up, when the wife gave me the okay to move ahead with an S2000. As for other suspension mods, we were going to wait and see how the car handled before buying sways. Beyond that I already had Camber bolts and SPL REAR LCAs, so that I could get some decent negative camber before the coilovers were installed.
I almost went 12k,10k. But Mike, said that since this car is still street driven I should go with the 11k,9k that he recommended.
As of right now I am running 17x9 with 245 square on RE-71s.

Thanks for your response to my questions. I'm not yet into the track side, trying Autocross this year to see if a return to Motorsports is in the cards. I'm on my second BRZ. First one I intended for a STX focus. Spl, swift springs and Whiteline parts along with ace type a 350 header are on the shelf from that plan. Looking to install later this year with the swift spec r. Wished I could pull the trigger on your great buy.
Your combination is what I had in mind, as mostly likely others too.
GLWS.
