Question with my Kyb's What is a good setting with my new adjustable shocks? It will only be driven on the street and is my summer DD :> I know everybodies taste is different but was just looking for ideas since it's been in storage for 3 months!
I only have them on the front of my car but i have them set at 1 for drag and because I'm running skinnys everyday. I did have then set at 4 and it hit too hard for my taste but with normal tires on the front I liked it

I'm on stock springs
Fronts = set on 5-6 with stock spring minus one coil
Rears = set on 7-8 with stock spring minus the rubber isolators.
The rears still hit the bump stops on larger bumps. I wish they were stiffer.

I have Eibach Sport springs and the AGX shocks. I have the front set at 6 and the rear at 3. This provides a tight front end and a looser rear end, characteristics for good road handling. If you do alot of drag racing then tighten the back.
The shocks are SA only, so in order to increase compression you must also increase rebound and vice versa. The shocks are ok for a streeter on a budget (most of us), but fall short in serious circuit racing because compression and rebound cannot be set independently.
In my opinion the shocks are fair but not good, but they are also not poor. They also tend to ride harshly no matter what settings are used. Their best quality is that they work well with lowered springs. If you do not already own these shocks, save your money for a better set.
