Default spring rates on d2.

Im buying D2s tonight and was planning on going 10k/8k but realized that 10k will void my warranty as you cant drop more than 2k and keep the warranty. So, ill go with 11k for the front. Should i stick with 8k rear or go with 9k rear? I know the 8k will lead to more understeer but im afraid the 9k will be too bouncy.

somewhat looks, but i am heavily concerned with the cars performance. I want it to be streetable, but handel pretty well. I guess i should states its a 94 ex coupe. so far this is the only suspension mod. Im going to be purchasing upper/lower tie bars, a thicker rear sway bar with poly bushings on all 4 corners and maybe a subframe brace(not sure if ill need it)

i havent heard anything but praise for the D2s. people love them around here. I ended going with 11k/8k. If i notice its too soft in the rear i will either just order a set of 9ks, or buy a thicker sway bar haha.
