Having the front set at 4 and the back set at 8 will give the stiffest ride ( like a shopping cart ). Of course if you have a drop more than a 1.5 inch drop the spring rates will be a bit high for the kyb agx to handle causing a bouncier ride ( like blown shocks ). Springs that give a drop of more than 1.5 inches usually have stiffer spring rates and should be paired up with a set of shocks that can handle its spring rates. Thats when its recommended to fork over the cash and buy a set of koni yellows.
i got kyb's with my neuspeed race's(2,2.25) and they're anything but bouncy. as long as you keep the shock settings stiff enough to compensate for the higher spring rate you shouldn't have a problem.
