Default M18 springs

I'm running foams on carpet with a firball and lipo. What Atomic springs should i be using, fronts, rear, and shock position. I'm pushing in the corners, i tried several setups but had no luck.

what foams are you running? 20 rear(soft) 40+ (hard) i n the fronts with atomic blue spring in the rear and atomic whites work with a 6 cell nimh set up.....depending on the lipo(weight and placement) you will have to make some adjustments to this set up

I used* the lowering springs and used blues in the rear with orange up front. However, Im actually considering that I might have needed to go even softer with a lipo setup and instead used blues up front with cut down stock blacks in the rear.

Here is my last carpet setup (pre Pro) (Works better in IE currently)

(*currently running asphalt).

We have a thread here already on the M18:
