Default Group 4 - Suspension settings

Just having a set of Group 4's fitted today and was interested in what people run on their road setups. On my DMS's i used to run the rears 2 clicks harder to promote a little oversteer.

At this stage all suspension is standard except for the Group 4s.

On the road for everyday driving, i've got it at about 7 clicks front & 6 rear for maximum comfort - with DCCD/A you can still get the arse out pretty easy - i've got upgraded sway bars, ALK, etc too, plus forward rake.

Track set-up's different - still a click or 2 harder at front - arse flicks out with r-comps in DCCD/A mode without much inducement.

0 = soft, 14 = hard - i think I'm 7/6 from full soft.

I was originally driving around @ 9/8, but toned it down on street to keep the misses happier - not that 9/8 was a problem - it was better than OEM ride quality.

They are so easy to adjust, it doesn't make too much diff either way.

my settings are the same as freds.

7 front, 6 rear. i had 10/9 for a while but funnily enough the mrs complained (must be a common trait in women ) and thats also the reason i softened them up.
