I'm about to have my Koni struts and shocks installed along with my Eibach Sportline springs. I tried calling Koni today for some recommended settings but they're closed today for the holiday. My car is a street car. I want a firm ride but not super brick hard. I'm not finding the direct answers I'm looking for using the search function and I'm kinda pressed for time. Which settings do you guys recommend?

 

Nevermind. I see that these shocks and struts aren't click settings like I thought they would be. I guess I'll just have to drive it and then adjust to my liking.

 

Most people just run them on full soft for just driving around and mess with the settings at auto-x and track days. IIRC most people crank the fronts up to medium to medium hard, and the backs only up one click (pretty sure the car gets twitchy if you go any more firm in the rear).

I really haven't messed with mine a whole lot yet, just ran them full soft on the street with the old stock WS6 springs last year and I was very impressed with what the car could do.

 

Fronts: Run them full soft for a month to get used to the car. After that, try 1/2 turn or 1 full turn from soft. This will depend on your road quality and/or usage of the car. A daily driver on rough roads and you may get tired of the full turn.....Conversely, you might not like them at full soft either because they rise up so fast that it almost feels like your head is vibrating if you're on jagged pavement at highway speeds. It's the extreme opposite of a sloshy suspension. Turning them up to 1/2 turn seems to eliminate this for me.....Having said all this, I still say run them at full soft for a month to get used to the car.

Rears: I've had mine on "0" clicks for 2 years now. I may try it on "1" click at some point in time. But the rear tends to feel stiffer than the fronts with both set at full soft. In my situation, the fronts at 1/2 turn and the rears at 0 clicks feel pretty equal.

 

Bingo. I keep mine at full soft so I still have a "suspension" while driving around. At an autoX on a nice flat surface I have increased them. There is a noticeable difference in shock stiffness from full soft to full hard.
