Default Suspension setup

I know on the stock Monster kit it says to use the front shocks/springs on the rear and get a different front set up.

Currently I have my SPEC Miata setup on the car. The rears are adjusted almost to the top of the perches to prevent bottoming out under hard acceleration.

I have another full set of the SPEC Miata Bilstein/Eibach set up and also a set of some adjustable KYBs at the house.

My question is, what would be the best route? Should I throw the other set of SPEC FRONTS on the REAR of the car? Maybe use the KYBs? Anyone mess around with this to get the best results?

Thanks.

I've heard spec Miata stuff works well with the V8 so that is what I am running. Eibachs 700 front and 350 rear as I recall and blistens. Sorry to say I have not driven the car yet to tell you how they are but that is what I will be running...
