Ride height with coilovers for track?

[WPGSUPRA]

Hey everyone I've installed a set of KW Clubsport V3 coilovers and i'm trying to figure out a decent ride height to set it at for track purposes.

The car has all the adjustable arms, no aero at all

Lifted all the way in case you go off track, obviously, Sterrato or Dakar style.

Seriously, though, your wheel specs and tire size are probably needed to answer this question.

Typically you'll see most people who are serious about tracking their car running very close to stock ride height. 10-15 mm lower max. The suspension on our cars don't like much lowering. It will make you slower on track.

do the stiffer coilovers even at stock ride height help that much? I am debating my next mod, on the list (note: I have stock turbo with jb4) is intake manifold (for IAT) or vented hood (not a huge fan of the cf hoods, would potentially try and get it paint matched). I have new pads/lines/fluid I'm putting on this weekend but I feel like last weekend it was pulling timing later in the laps which is why I was looking at heat dissipation options after the better pads. (I do have front and rear sways/wheels and ps4s)

I also have KW Club sports and I run them a few turns from max ride height.
With 295s A052s squared, never had any issues. Car felt very natural suspension geometry wise.

My car is set about 1/2" lower than stock. Would not go any lower if you plan on tracking the car.
