245/40/17s all arond

F Castor = 6'

4/6 are my street shock settings. Pretty soft so that it doesn't toss me around like a doll.

I haven't autocrossed it yet -- we'll see how that goes.
Did you have the UK settings prior to pss9?

What's the real advantages of having UK settings? I'm assuming that it's more agressive, but does it reduce the oversteer of the s2k? I'm asking b/c I've been reading more about the UK settings.

thanks for the info!

I think this is the coilover I am going to go with. For driving comfort (for my wife) I think the PSS9 is my best and highest quality option.
How much of a PITA is it to adjust the drivers rear?
not hard at all

my impression of these is that they feel great for daily driving

only problem i have is that they do not go that low

I live in SoCal
there is a limit..

but with 255s on the back (and a realistic camber) I'm higher that the "allowed" drop...


and IMHO -- plenty low
