bottom line...

They're firm as fawk but smooth as butter

And yea they're set to full stiff too

noice. I want to go approx .25" lower, but I cannot ride full stiff as my kiddos would hate the ride. Plus I would bang my front A-arms (on an X). On BC Coils 10k/8k. Ideas???

Why do people copy other peoples' style/setup? Pretty pathetic. You can see who the leaders and the followers are.

wow...nice dude, I didn't copy JBF's setup, I went with that because I had a 14k/14K setup on an old set of tein monoflex that I had and it worked well

I was referring to the Mazda. I myself have similar to what John has. 14k up front and 8k in the rear. The 12/5 was not cutting it for me. Down the line I'll probably be going stiffer. Might go with JIC's and have them build something up for me.
