If you want the car to retain a decent ride and handling, then I would opt for the 300 rate.

for the street, i have the 325 rate and i'm not satisfied. i'm looking at a custom 355 rate if i can find it for a decent price.

i havent upgraded the sway bars yet, but i might do that before i invest in more expensive springs.
