Default 4th gen suspension help. SKUNK2

jus purchased a set of skunks 2 adjustable coilovers and will probably put them in some time next week. im gonna set them to 1.5 drop although i jus wanted to know how the ride is with these coilovers. i will be staying on stock shocks.. i know my only other choice for a drop was ractive coilovers.

rides like a dream.... if you dream about mountain biking.

Stiff, really stiff... stock shocks will make it very bouncy tooo... worst combination is stock shocks and skunk2...

your stock struts arent going to last with those coilovers very long

i doubt that any coilover will ride nice w/ stock shocks. in fact any spring that has a decent drop will still be a bit bouncy.

friend of mine has ground control coilovers on his stock shocks and their good but still get bouncy on big bumps n stuff. not as stiff though.anyways how low should i go on these coilovers? my mechanic says the lower the worse.
