Riding on tein ss, why so bouncy?

Ok I have had the tein ss coilovers installed for about 5 months now, but it feels like i still cant find the right setting.......

no matter what setting I have them on they seem too bouncy

my car is dropped about 2 inches with a rear chamber kit also.

right now I'm rolling on 4 clicks from the hardest setting

the ride is a little harsh on the street and on the highway gives me those short quick bounces.

I understand when dropping a car the ride changes, but my last car (integra) was slammed and gave me a very firm yet un bouncy ride.


anyone have any input? and tein ss owners whats ur ideal setting that u ride on?
Thanks

Soo many tien complants. I hear it all the time.



Well what you need is this:

Tanabe SUSTEC PRO S-0C Type II
Unique double-cylinder design allows for full suspension stroke within the shortened shock body while Low-pressure gasses ensure smooth rebound characteristics for additional ride comfort. For all driving enthusiasts


hehe kidding your tiens should be fine. Try raising it. Or try the Tanabes.

Try 8 or 9 clicks from the hardest setting and that should soften it up. Btw, 8 clicks is the Tein recommended starting point. You can go up or down from there to find a setting that works better for you.
