      450 front is smoooooooth for DD and enough to keep you happy at the canyon.
      700 rear is a bit rough with Bilstein Sports, but tolerable. If you take a speed bump over 3mph there is a JOLT.

      This is actually my rate setup and I'll be going 550 front later on.

      GLWS!

          I honestly can't tell you for sure. I bought tokico hp blue shocks, just so i can roll the car around the driveway and drive it to exhaust shop etc., because i couldn't find reasonable koni's.

          I did drive the car around some, (less than 500 miles as mentioned) and it's factory like on smooth surfaces, bumps can be bouncy. BUT liek i said i have shitty shocks, so i can't really tell you for sure.

          I rode in my buddy's that has the same rate with shortened/revalved koni's, and it rode amazingly.


          I thought about stepping down to 350/550, but i'm not sure yet. That's why it's just a feeler for now.




          AK, are your bilsteins revalved?


          I think i'm gonna go koni for the adjustability factor, but billy's have crossed my mind too.
