Default spring rates?

not sure what spring rates to run. wondering if someone could help me. i plan to run adjustable shocks all around. not sure on brand yet. but i want the car to be set up for road racing, but i still want it streetable because its my daily driver. so nothing to stiff. dont want coil overs, pretty much because they are just plain noisy and make the car bouncy. whatcha guys think? is there a common set-up that seems to work pretty well? thanks in advance
