need help deciding springs for my Konis i got a new set of konis, right now i got a prokit on crappy shocks
i have randomly aquired a few different sets of springs and have come up with a couple ideas
for the front
i have the lt1 prokit
and ls1 prokit
and stock lt1 spings cut 1 coil on lower perch
of those 3 which would ride/handle the best, which would be the lowest
and what setting do i put the konis at?
on the back
lt1 prokit
stock lt1 springs, most likely cut 1.5 coils with isolator (this should keep a lil rake while being lowered)
or stock lt1 springs cut .5 to 1 coil and heater hose mod
of those 2 which would ride and handle the best, which would be lowest, and where should the rear konis be set
thanks for the help, i have read a TON and i know every thread says run stranos, and i would, but i think the rates are gonna be a lil bit higher than what id want to run. the car wont really be raced

Assuming isn't a good idea. My springs are in fact softer than the LT1 Pro-kits. And my springs are, by most accounts, quite comfortable on the street.
