As for steering rates....
personally it depends on track grip conditions and how tight/flowing the track is plus what tyre charateristics you have...
if you have an aggressive tyre on front such as minispikes then you won't want full steering rates as it will dig in too quick and grip roll... but this is set-up dependant and conditions based too.
i tend to go out on a new track to practice with steering on maximum and see how it feels in a few laps as you learn layout... if it feels too much instantly after a few laps, pull car over and turn it down say 20% and try a few more laps.
it all depends on how much feel you have for front end grip and what suits your driving style...
i prefer to have too much steering available as it can be handy to have extra lock if needed when going into a corner a bit fast and using extra steering to scrub speed.
a car that feels like it understeers initially will normally be easier to drive consistantly... but its a personal preference thing so something you will have to play with in testing to find a balance that suits.
