So you're running 5 clicks from the stiffest or softest setting?

I'm now running at the softest setting. I swear I could run over a dime and tell you if it was heads or tails. Very sporty ride. I don't ink I would want it any stiffer!

I set mine 10 clicks away from stiff on the front and 12 clicks from stiff in the rear. I am still trying to find a setting I like. but so far, I still think my car is a little bouncy comparing to the ebich prokit springs I use to have.

no its smoother than when i had it set stiffer. The bounce seems to come when the dampeners are so stiff that the tires take all the bumps and not the springs. Im gonna give it a week and ill post my thoughts. I dont want to rush to judgement.
