I was wondering if this would be able to strike a nice balance.

Logic says that if people have liked the RCE yellows [ which are 4.5 KG square ] then the RSR springs rates will be fine?

Now that Andrew says the B6 with the stock springs are nice, then I deduce that they are comfortable....but are they adequate for some canyon spirited drives?
Or some stiffer springs are needed?

@ Racecomp Engineering. What do you say?


The shipping rates are killing during these times and the above package will be achievable sometime very soon.
RSR down + B6 would be a very fun combo. It sounds very similar to my STi + B6 setup which was so comfy yet really sporty. It’s a very “this is how the car should’ve came” feeling. Stock springs + B6 will also have a similar feeling but I fear you may kick yourself for not upping the spring rates by such a slight but noticeable amount for the canyon runs.
