Fronts?
I used to have those. Extension full loose, compression full tight. Even full tight, mine bobbed up & down on landing (wheel stand prone) I tightened the extension some if standing up too high. Usually 4 clicks tighter would calm it down if that was a problem.

You should invest in some adjustable rears as well. On the fronts I usually run between 2-4 clicks from full loose on the extension/rebound and full tight on compression. My car stands way up when I have the extension on full loose.

Yea I don't want it to stand up! My next purchase will be rears. I wanted to see how the car is going to react to just fronts first. Is your car a six speed?

The problem I had before without adjustable fronts with just lowering springs and stock shocks all the way around was it seemed like the front end was settling too quick and causing the rear tires to unload enough to feel them slightly spinning about 20-30ft out. Hope this fixes it!
