stance coilover owners, post your damper settings

To any of you guys who are running on Stance GR+ coilovers on their g35 coupes. What are your front/rear dampers set at?

Would like to know what a good setting to have the rears at for those of you who are slammed on 20's with aggressive offsets in the rear running on stretched tires.

Most guys slammed on 20s (or 19s) with agressive offsets are running full stiff to prevent/reduce rubbing.

I'm at full stiff F/R on BC Racing coils.

^ good thing it's an easy fix. just take off the wheel and remove two 12 bolts on top of the shock housing, adjust, put shock back and wheel back and your done.

And u could leave it at 10 if your not bottoming out.

So what would y'all recommend for the rears? I should be getting mine this week and I want to set my rears right the first time because I heard you can't adjust on a coupe without drilling holes will be dropped on oem 19s. Looking for a comfortable ride. Thanks guys

I'm at 15F and 13 or 14R (forgot which). I don't bottom out or rub at all in the rear, but I also have rolled fenders and the camber adjusted to avoid it even if I was on a softer dampening.

Now I'm curious, does having your stiffness high wear out the coilovers considerably faster?

It will really depend on how your car is setup. If you don't have much clearance you'll probably end up setting your suspension stiffer.
