My current setup is definitely oriented in the oversteer direction (not that I know the math, I just know that every single time I get close to being in trouble, it's from oversteer not understeer, even in a faster sweeping corner  ), and I'm pretty comfy with that. |
whats your weights though? im on swifts till tomorrow and since they are 10k and 10.5k id think with the "math" that'd be more in the middle of under/over? but my rear is so damn loose because you can only gut the rear out, its the weight making me loose and not the rates id think. maybe you too?
fyi, i just drove to a scale and cut the wheel width in half and used that as my front to rear weight.

dear lord, this reminds me of National Treasure, Riley says "'why cant they just say go to this place, here's the treasure, spend it wisely." the search for suspension just never ends. just clue after clue.
