Default Koni sa settings????

I just purchased front and rear koni sa's. I also purchased Vogtland Springs. Now I am trying to figure out the best setting on my konis. My car will be driven 99% on the streets. I live in NJ where every road has potholes the size of the grand canyon. I want a setting that will provide me with the best handling possible without sending me out of control when I hit a pothole. I am not interested in drag settings. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

You have to go out there and play with the adjustments. Everyone will like theirs different. Play with the fronts first, then play with the rear. Take your time and find happiness.

Start at full soft in the rear, and 5 clicks from full hard in the front. The adjust from there.

Mine are full soft in rear and 4 turns from full hard in the front. Very livable for my DD. Roads around here are pretty good though.

Rears .....adjust 1/4 turn from softest position, and work from there!
I went about 100 degrees, and now that seems a bit too harsh, so I intend on backing off a little
