A quickie for those with Koni's and H&R

so I'm putting on my Koni's yellow + H&R springs. for those who have/had this combi what is the dampening adjustment for both Front and Rear to give a luxury or close to stock feel?
i understand it's all about personal preference and i would probably need to go back and adjust several times to fit my taste but just wanna try to make it close the first try...

thanks a bunch!!!

I'm at 1/2 turn from full soft on the same setup and it's pretty smooth, yet still handles very well with the Progress RSB. I keep meaning to play with the settings after a year, but I don't see the need to really.

i have koni/eibach and 5/8 turns in the front and 7/8th turns in the back give a very smooth ride. well balanced and easy to control past the limit. both my sway bars are solid so if yours are stock you might be able to go a little softer without ur chassis feeling like its being tossed around

so i just finished the installation last weekend and currently have the rear 1 full turn from full stiff. i keep the front the way it was shipped.

the feel is pretty close to stock feel, a little bit on the stiffer side but i kinda like it. might play around with the front dampening to make it a little bit stiffer cuz i want less body roll on turns.

Since you're putting on springs that are stiffer than stock, obviously, the softer you can go on the Koni's, the more it's going to feel similar to stock. When I had my Konis + Neuspeed, I kept it on full soft and it was near stock, but still a little firmer. I loved it. Remember, you're "upgrading" your suspension with these new parts, so nothing is going to ride exactly like stock.
