I'm still in DS with my first gen, but I've been doing some heavy research on spring rates, coilover options, etc. as I'm planning on an STX build in the near future.

Spring rates come down to what you want the car to do - be neutral, oversteer, understeer, etc.

A lot of the top guys want higher spring rates in the rear to increase rotation. Which is great if that's what you want and how you drive. You do want some rotation in the rear... but of course, if it doesn't fit your driving style, then don't just do it because all the cool kids are.

How much experience/events do you have on the current setup and do you need more rear rotation?
