Default Koni Sp3/Race Shocks

Looking at a couple Koni Shocks to combo with GC.

I want to run a 450/400fr with a 300r spring rate.

My wheels are 16x8 0et.


As you can see, I will maybe need to tuck the rims a little bit and i will be running Blox front and rear camber kit to persuade those rims into my fenders.

I was wondering if it would be a smart move by upgrading to sp3 or even race shocks for some more damper travel

sp3 gives me another 20mm of travel and the race shocks give me 40mm. I will run these in conjunction with the extended top hats if needed but i feel as i will get more droop than i would need and possibly not have enough damping (dont knwo the technical term for this)

simply put, do i need the extra 20mm (+extended top hat) with the sp3 or even 40mm (+extended tophat) with the race shocks?

Thanks guys, just another driver looking for a comfortable sspension setup
