A little bit about GC... I sat in George's G20 with 375/ 275(correct me if I am wrong, Geo), the ride is firm not hrash... Very German like kind of ride. However, I have not try out the new spring rates George has on his car now, which something like 275/225???
Bottomline is, I will not hestiate to get GC if the price is good. I believe such approach is better than just normal lowering springs.

When you rode in the car it had 340/275 springs. I am now running on 275/200. I think I would like to try 275/225 or 300/225. I think I have the car a little too low currently for the 275 springs up front.
If you liked the 340/275, I think you will
really like the 275/200. At 340/275 I thought it was a bit too jiggly for my tastes and certainly Kerry's. I think the 275/200 rides incredibly well and I think the only place you would notice a difference in handling is on the race track. If I were to do it again, I might try 300/225, but until I have the opportunity to raise it a little (about a quarter to a half inch - .5-1 cm) and change to Koni bumpstops, it's too soon to say.
I also think if I were to run Konis I would be much happier - especially at higher spring rates due to better damper tuning (I believe Japanese dampers have too much bounce and not enough rebound damping).
