There is alot of difference between the Softest to the Stiffest setting.... But the stiffest isnt that stiff in my opinion.

I have mine set on 4 in the front and I think 5 in the rear. My front is set at the highest cuz I have an h22 in there. Theres a pretty good difference between the stiffness. I like the shocks alot and have not had any problems with them. For the amount of money I feel that got my moneys worth out of them.

i have the agx's mated with prelude ground controls... the settings only go from 1 to 4 and yes, i notice a large difference between them. 1 feels somewhat like stock, or like a tokico blue... the 4 is very stiff, but drivable. i love them, fits my needs.

The KYB's will do the job just fine but if you plan on going any lower than 2" I wouldnt recomend them since they tend to blow when the car is that low.

Default Re:

how stiff they can get is related to your spring rates too.i hope no one makes the assumption they are gonna feel a drastic stiff ride with some over the counter generic daily driving spring rates.

match your spring rates accordingly.
