Default off-road setup for RC18T - help plz

I've rebuild my shocks about 3 times and week and I'm still looking for a good overall setup to us for off-road bashing and racing (with the big guys 1/10 and 1/8). Right now I have 60wt. oil and blue springs in the back and 40wt.oil blue springs in the front (I also have front gold springs). Also, the front is about 7mm and the back is 5mm. I've seen that most run the heavier oil in the front and the lighter in the back but 60 to 40 is a little steep. The stiffer springs and usually put in the front and the softer in the back but I kinda like the front to soak up more while the back stays stable. what do you guys think or run yourselfs???

thanx

they cost abit but me and a few of mines like to run the 1\12 scale vcs shocks from associated. they cost about $10 each brand new but man do they make a diffrence. we run both street and off-road with the wide kits on our rides and they are easy to adjust and make do for everything.
