    I got the progress lowering springs.. The ride is much better.
    as far as the setting goes I really havent had the chance to play with much. I just got em last month. I hear most members have set this way or 1 in front and 2 in back

    Yes, 1 is the softest and in your case (8g) 4 is the stiffest.

    I have mine on 3 in the front and 5 in the rear, the 7g's have 8 settings in the rear. I like mine stiff

    What I found to be best was 2 up front and 1 in the rear. 1 in the front is way too soft for a front heavy car. Stiffer up back will increase oversteer and push you towards a neutral handling car...if you can handle the ride.

    2 in the front and 8 in the rear, been like that for about a year now and I dont need to tell you how I corner on the road some of you have already seen how I get down. But the ride is nice and stiff on smooth roads but in NYC I guess you can say that i feel most of the cracks and crevises if the road aint paved right. :? But still love the way they feel

    Not how fast your car goes but how good u drive going fast.

    I have mine set on 2 all the way around. For me thats the best for daily driving, stiff enough to play with, but not to hard to rattle me constantly. Autocross days are nearing so I'm gonna be messing with the set up on that, but I"m thinkin 3 fr and 4 rear or just 4 all around.

    Ride isnt' bad at all on my car. 2 is slightly rougher than stock i noticed and 1 is almost stock as long as I don't hit too big of bumps.

    Right now we have a LS V6 with H&R sport springs running 2 in the front and 1 in the rear. It keeps things balanced with the spring rate that way. It rides firm but it's cushy. Because of the stiffer front the car still understeers rather than handling neutral but it's a good balance I think. We set it on 4 in front and 4 in the rear for kicks once...and kick it did. Don't do that
