I talked to Myles who was very helpfull and found out that the B6 was developed with 280 lbs springs which was a perfect match for the RCE yellows. I wouldn't have to have my shocks revalved after all saving me $$$. So last Sunday my friend and I installed the RCE yellows along with Mooresport rear LCAs and I have to say the car is now perfect! Yes the car is about 10mm higher but who cares. More travel is good, especially the rear suspension. You want to enjoy your car, not get beat up by it. It still handles amazingly yet is now more refined.

My current Wheel/tires and suspension setup:
RCE tarmac yellow springs/ Bilstein B6 shocks
RCE F&R hollow sway bars
Raceseng Cascam and rear shock tops with 1" extra bump travel
Mooresport rear lateral links
17x9 RPF1s with 245/40 17 PSS tires


You might want to edit your post for clarity. RCE Yellows are one spring and RCE Tarmacs are another
