Need advice regarding Koni double adjustable shocks
Finishing up my Coupe and would like some advice on the initial settings for the front and rear double adjustable Koni’s I have installed. This will be for street use only. I have an IRS with #500 springs in the front and #400 in the rear. Got some idea from the Koni website but I am interested in what folks are generally starting with. Thanks

I've completed two builds with the Koni double adjustable shocks. My 20th Anniversary Roadster and my current Gen 3 Coupe. The shocks were part of the anniversary package for the Roadster. Liked them, so added them to the Coupe. My driving is 99% street driving. I'm far from an expert on the subject. But did do some research and this is how I set them on both cars. I'm happy with the result, although full disclosure, haven't tried anything else. (1) Confirmed all settings at minimum values (factory default). (2) Left compression at minimum. (3) Added two clicks (of 12 available) to rebound. Recommended on forum as likely providing better more controlled ride than the minimum setting. The suspension and performance experts (certainly not me) may have other ideas, but this has worked for me.
