Default bout time i got some shocks!!!

i finally purchase some shocks for my car.. some nice Tokico Illuminas with Skunkworks (yes!! i sed Skunkworks)

anyhow, i was wondering how you guys set the shocks for daily riding or track?

what settings do you recommend for my front and back for daily driving?
FYI: my shocks are 5 point adjustable just in case you didn't know already...

thanks :goodjob: TIA

You will just have to play with the settings and see what you like best. Did you get them from ebay for $365 shipped?

good choice with the tokicos. For me, I have H&R springs which are pretty stiff. For daily driving, I have them set to 1 which is still much stiffer than stock. If you set them to 5 they get extremely stiff.
