I will give the BB springs another shot in back to back testing(i run once a week, track is too far away), i'll try orange front and yellow rears but idk, seems i never have enough steering until i go to a shot front foam, then steering is twitchy and hard to stay on a line.
you had a very unbalanced combo for the BB springs.

Rule of thumb

Silver and Pink
Orange and Yellow
Red and White

I've never seen Pink work with anything but Silver.

Silver should be your starting point for std packs.
Pink for higher bite, Yellow for med, white for low bite
Orange and Yellow are what I normally run on a low bite rough surface.

Red/White combo is more for shorty pack or extremely loose conditions.

Try different combos and see how you like them.
