Are you talking for the street or for the track.
I like to crank the front at the track / auto-x and go with about 5 less clicks in the rear.

Re: Tein SS owners (ek4 fa sho)
10/8 there is a road by my job that i test it out on. if it works there then it works for me. i had the fronts in for a bit longer then the rears so i am used to it. in the 2 month that i have had it the setting i have tried are 16/stock rear, 8/stock rear, 16/16, and 10/8. honestly i would do 16/16 but i heard that it will shorten the life of the damper. i probably wont have the car when they die but i dont want to just throw money away like that

this is true but my stock shocks kind of got destroy during/after installation so i will have to have a back up suspension. hopefully i will graduate school next year so i can have a back up car

Re: Tein SS owners (nijia555)
how is that integra set up on the EG?? im ordering this same set-up on friday, i heard that the teins had soft spring rates, so i guess im overdoing it too be safe and went with the integra spring rates. Is it really that more stiff?? how is the handling............ and how do u people drive on 16?? just sounds ruff, maybe when i get home to kali, but now in michigan, i cant even imagine it........ but i gotta try it!!

had 10/10 for a while... realized for daily driving it was a little too stiff for my taste. i then put them to 8/8 and they are good but i think im going to go 9/8 and see how that feels.
