uhh are u sure ur running 16/18? the SS is only supposed to click counter-clockwise (going softer) up to 16! i think u might've made a typo but if not, u should adjust them so that they are not past 16 clicks.

driveslow - try setting the back 2 clicks softer than the front. for a daily driver u probably want a softer ride, like 10f/12r or 11/13 or so. start with those numbers and see if u want to adjust it harder or softer. keep in mind if ur slammed the rider will be stiffer and vice versa with the same click settings...at least in my experience that was the case.

I had my EDFC preset at 32/32. Some don't know but you can set your EDFC settings either 16/16 or 32/32.

If you do not have the EDFC set the front at 10 and the rears at 8. That is a nice balance between a sporty resopnsive ride and OEM comfort.

What are the reasons for setting softer in front vs back?

So I tested it out with 10/12 and 11/13. 11/13 feels best for me but my rear driver side is squeaking like crazy. What could it be.

How low are people. I want to go a little lower in the rear. I set my ride height to TEIN specs. 1in of threading.
