s13 Different RS-R springs s13

Here is a comparisson of the different RS-R springs offered for the s13

rs-r down spring
Estimated Front Drop - 40mm(1.6in)
Estimated Rear Drop - 25mm(1.0in)
Front Spring Rate - 3.00kg(168lbs)
Rear Spring Rate - 3.00kg(168lbs)

rs-r race spring
Estimated Front Drop - 35mm(1.4in)
Estimated Rear Drop - 30mm(1.2in)
Front Spring Rate - 5.00kg(279lbs)
Rear Spring Rate - 4.50kg(251lbs)

rs-r ti2000 spring
Estimated Front Drop - 40mm(1.6in)
Estimated Rear Drop - 30mm(1.2in)
Front Spring Rate - 3.00kg(168lbs)
Rear Spring Rate - 3.00kg(168lbs)

The ti2000 spring is not listed on the rs-r website BUT it is or was offered. Whats special about the ti2000 springs? Basically its made of titanium composite so it supposed to be very strong and light(er).

I have a set of ti2000 and i plan to match them up with some KYB AGX struts.
What i know so far:
-I read alot of good things about the down springs matched up with agx struts. Good handling and ride comfort.
-I read the race springs are not the best fit for AGX struts for the most part due to the high spring rates. Best bet is to get some Koni yellows with race springs. Some say agx valving is not a good match. Ride is very stiff for a DD. Some love it others hate it.

I have yet to read anything on the ti2000 springs matched up with the agx. I'm assuming it should be just like the down springs, practically the same except the rear is .2 inches lower.

What it is my setup for, mostly daily driving. Probably no track time just sprints here and there on Jersey roads.

Has anyone else ran this setup with the ti2000 or can chime in about there rs-r setup?
