I just run Eibach Pro-Kit on my DD Lude and may be going back to stock soon enough.
My race car runs 380F/400R which is pretty aggressive on the street.....

Also be mindful of LINEAR vs PROGRESSIVE

Off the shelf Ground Control rates are more than enough for a street car......

off the shelf GC rates are a little soft. not sure what the rates are for them, but I would recommend something a little stiffer.

For a street car? GC OTS is 380F/275R
If youre bottoming out.....your car is too low.....
And when you say a little soft....What kind of shocks were used? I would doubt Konis.

GC 8k/6k OTS Koni Sport

A bit stiff for a street car. It works though.
