we are running a 75 malibu that weighs 3600 with spring rate of LF 1100 RF 1200 LR 200 RR250 with bilstien shocks all the way around. the car is pretty good at the end of the night on the dry slick.

The springs are def too tall. We have learned that the metric front susp like to be softer than previous setups. And a softer right front helps control the instability on entry. My suggestion is: LF-950,RF-900, LR-200, RR-200. As the night goes on and the track goes dry-slick switch your RR to a 175. This setup will be much smoother going in and on exit.
