Best adjustment settings on Koni Red/Yellow?
I've installed Koni Yellow struts on the front of my 88 IROC and Reds on the rear. The roads I drive are somewhat rough. What settings have you all found works the best? Nitro-Nicky

Re: Best adjustment settings on Koni Red/Yellow?
It depends alot on your car and what springs/sway bars you're running. Best thing is to go with full soft for just driving around and to follow the adjustment instructions on KONI's site to adjust them for yourself. I think it's start at full soft and adjust stiffer by half turns until you get the ammount of roll control you want or something of that nature. Most run rear Yellows at 0-1 in most situations, but you may want a stiffer setting on the Reds to match the front Yellows. Why'd you go with a mismatched set, if you don't mind my asking.

The Red's came with a box of stuff I bought from another member, so I figured that the should adjust up to be equal with the new front Yellers. However, they are much-much softer than the Yellows and that's what led to me asking about it. The back bottoms out like an old hooker. Nitro
