Message On the track I set them at 10 or 11 ( out of 15 ) and have at it. The ride is hard but not any where as harsh as I was expecting. Maybe I'll try 15 all around just to see how rough it can be... but the ride isn't bad at all. What the ride is at the track is more solid and predictable. The eibachs were progressive and therefore not consistent in the way the car felt at different corning speeds. That problem is now gone.

On the street the ride is also better than I thought it was going to be. Whether they are set at 1 or 2 all around... or maybe 4 or 5 when I'm hauling the trailer... the ride is very livable.

The unexpected bonus is that I think the coilovers are better at handling normal bumps, expansion joints, etc, at slow speeds than the eibachs are. The eibachs at slow speed just seemed to feel everything thing with a harsh jolt that had everyone commenting on. I've had no such feelings or comments from anyone over the same roads.

Don't forget you can also change the ride height of the car with these where you can't with the eibachs.

One of the best items I've bought for the Z.
