I'll start with my current setup: 99 Civic Hatch
CG coilovers 350F 300R on AGX adjustables. Front Si 26mm swaybar and Rear ITR 22mm swaybar with Beaks kit

It handles pretty well like it is currently, but I have a pair of rear springs with a 400 spring rate sitting in my garage that I haven't used yet. If I were to install these, what kind of handling changes would I expect?

Any advantages to running higher rates in the rear?

I don't autoX, but I do like to hit the windy roads with some spirited driving.

It's going to be a stiffer ride and will have more oversteer than it does now. I'm running Koni/GC with 450F/400R, 22mm rear sway, no front sway on my 99 Coupe.

You could also throw the 350 on the back and 400 on the front if you want.
