I also have a bunch of side springs. I think red was in there but put whites in. Still have green and blue above that I can try. The car had about 1mm of pod droop already.
So it should be pretty close then? Cool. Thanks
Trips: I will keep an eye out for those tires. One of the tracks I race at has real low grip.

Sounds like you ought to be close. The 5 degree blocks are a good place to start, and a shim on each side is also a good start. You might want to get a set of the 10 degree blocks to try as well... If you find you have a lot of initial steering into the corner, then a push on the exit, you can move both shims to the back... if you have little initial steer, but plenty at the exit, move the shims forward... if you have a good balance between initial and exit steering, but need less steering in general, you could go to the red shock spring (it's two pounds lighter than the copper) or lighter on the side springs... If you want more steering in general, you could try the ten degree blocks for the upper arm...
Another tire combo I like is Parma grey rear/coral front...
