Post Bilstein Cup shocks/struts

Hi can the Bilstein Cup shocks/struts handle 33mm T-bar(490#) and 500# Fr springs. I am talking about the lower rated Cup struts/shocks:

AK1110A 380/150
AK1111A 380/150
AK35432 400/200
Compression/Rebound

I had those on my 951 with 350# front springs and 30mm rear torsion bars, and the combination worked very well. For the springs and torsion bars you mentioned, I would use the higher rated Bilsteins. I'm assuming this is a track-only car -- if it's going to be driven on the street, you shouldn't use anything more aggressive than the shock/spring combination that I had on my car.

Thanks todd951. I think I am going to go 350# and 30mm with Koni sports just because they are much cheaper than the Bilsteins. If I decide I need 500# springs I will get the higher rated Bilsteins like you suggested.
