Default Suspension help!!

I am looking into upgrading my suspension for my EG hatch. I've decided to get Koni Yellows with Hypercoil springs. The problem is that, I do not know the correct spring length. I have asked around and I was told to just find the ride height from the springs I like and get that spring length. Is the correct? I was thinking about it and thought - "Would it sit the same if the spring rates is stiffer?". I'm kinda liking the H&R Race springs, and H&R Sport springs.

I'm a complete noob at suspension, please give a helping hand. haha

I know the Koni Yellows are barely adjustable so I don't want to get springs that will slam me to the floor and I won't be able to adjust it since I am autox'ing this car too.

if your just going with springs. u don't need to know the correct length. just need to need how low you want it. -1in or 2.25 in drop.

I would personally go with ground control coilvers paired with you konis. These you can chose what length you want shorter if u want to slam your car.

Those H&R springs are know to sag. My cousin's rsx with h&r sports rear is slammed and front has a couple finger gap.
