The standard spring rates worked fine for me, and my EJ1 was a little heavier than an EF is, so I don't see why you'd need firmer springs. Be aware that you're going to be replacing struts fairly often as the AGX's start leaking relatively fast with that low of a drop. It's one of those "pay to play" type deals.

well its the agx's off the rex so ill be using those
if i decided to switch to koni yellows later could i buy whatever special thing i need to make the yellows work with my GC's?
i think itll only b like an inch lower than i have on my rex (not even then as low as u were) do u reallythink they will still start leaking that fast?
