Default JIC FLT-A2 Advice Please

So I picked up this set from a G35 owner locally, that didnt appreciate the ride quality. He changed to the VIP set from JIC. I paid $800 (low km's) His loss my gain! So I did search the forums, and I read what I found. That lead me to getting a hold of JIC to get a pair of softer springs for the rear. They came with 10/12, and I'm going with 10/7. You can see in the pics the difference in thickness between the two is drastic.
I'm looking for advice on how I should adjust the shock for the new rate, and any other useful set up/ install advise that past/current JIC owners can offer.
I dont have Dampening adjustment tools. I did buy the wrenches.
I'm installing them at a buddy's personal shop not a business. The two guys that rent the shop are experienced, but they are Honda nuts.
Oh ya and I have Stillen sways at medium f/r. SPC camber kits f/r.
Will I need adjustable end links? I want to be like 2" lower than stock.

Thanks Flame On!

Do you run yours at full soft in the rear and it's still really rough? Thats what I read. For mostly street use anyway. I'm thinking I'll go with 2 from soft with the 10/7 w/sway bars.
