Rear Konis are set to max stiffness. I haul stuff sometimes and this works great with only minor rubbing on big dip in freeway when fully loaded and at speed, see pic.
I also use heavy load springs in rear from SAS.
I didn't notice worse handling compared to the stock set-up. The stiffer rear springs are much better in the turns even jacked up one inch.
Cheers, KB.
