Whats the best way to install the RC versions with composer, keeping in mind ive installed the official release already with composer.

I worked it out:

composer require getkirby/cms:3.0.1-rc.1

Will update the currently installed version (which in my case was the 3.0 release from launch day) to the RC version.

You can also add "minimum-stability": "RC" to your composer.json file. Then you don’t have to change the exact version every time.

{
    "config": {
        "optimize-autoloader": true
    },
    "require": {
        "php": "7.2.*",
        "getkirby/cms": "^3.0"
    },
    "minimum-stability": "RC"
}
