Stance super sport coilover question

just had these coilovers put on my G coupe , i see there 15 click adjustable ...., had them set on all in the middle to feel them out , pretty solid until I hit small bumps, real bouncey what should i have the damping set ...for the best comfort ride, its not slammed since its my daily driver, just enough to cover the wheel gap on my stock 19's

thanks

they are crappy shocks, so you wont find a setting that you like. They aren't digressive, so they will be off at one end or the other. If you set it firm enough so that it doesn't oscillate on low speed bumps, it will be jarring on high speed bumps. If you set it soft enough so high speed bumps are comfortable it will bounce on low speed bumps. Sorry, you should have bought real shocks.

Yeah, Stance's in my opinion are pretty much just meant for us people who are wanting to get pretty low and still have a *decent* ride. Unfortunately it is very tough to find that sweet spot for the dampening. Ive tried full stiff, and I ended up going back to around halfway front and rear, it really seems to be about the best option for me, mainly because the roads in my area are crap.

If you want the best bang for buck, look in to FEAL 441 coilovers. You pick the spring rate and Odi valves them to match.
