Going to bump this thread.

Doing some serious consideration of getting some Ohlins R&T installed.

According to Ohlins, there's a bespoke 1M kit available now. It differs from the M3 kit in that the rear spring rate is 110 N/mm (628 lbs) instead of 120 N/mm (685 lbs). This is presumably to compensate for a lighter car.

For those of you who have installed the M3 kit, do you think that this decreased spring rate would make a substantive difference? I'm trying to get a sense of how important this would be for overall feel and driveability. (I figure the wizards at Ohlins know what's going on.) Incidentally, this would be for a combined road and 5-6 HPDEs/year scenario.
