I can figure out approximately what your damping settings correspond to on my RR2s if I look at the charts and do a little math, that may be useful so thanks! Right now I have it set at 12 clicks on C and R from full soft up front (Hotchkis bar on medium) and 7 out back (ZLE bar on soft). I also tried 9 all around which is right in the middle with the ZLE bar on M too. I like that setting better out back and 12 up front... It'll just take some time to get a feel for the differences in damping.
On tires, Nankang just told Tire Rack they wouldn't be making the 335/30/18 CR-S on schedule and moved it out at least 3 months, but TBD. That's some crappy timing. However, the 295/35/18 REs just went down in price to $385, plus there's a $70 rebate and if you use the Cap1 shopping app, look at the tires and wait a day or two they'll send an offer for 10.5% "cash back", has to be used with their affiliates but that's not hard to do, it includes Lowes and at least one supermarket. So, about $1300 + tax. Not bad considering Yoks in 315/30/18 are over $500 each.

The fun of adjusting coilovers..lol friends and I went through the same thing on our fifth gens years ago. I had pedders double adjustables, friends had DSE and others brands. On all we were told to make big swings in adjustments to notice any real difference and that worked. And like you are finding, stiffer in front and middle in back then fine tune if needed. On street softer to middle was best. Stiffer on roadcourses.
