As a rule of thumb if you harden rear spring rates more than the front on any car you increase tendency to oversteer, if you do it the other way you increase tendency to understeer. Might sound counter-intuitive but that's the way it works (it's all about the tyre loading).

Increasing damping rate may well have the same effect.

In that case you might make the handling in the dry more fun (better turn-in, more precise cornering) but lose some traction in slippery conditions.

How about with wider rear wheels?
