Re: QA1 Coilovers Spring Rate 650-750-850?

How have you adjusted your shocks?

If there is just one knob, they are likely single adjustable and probably adjust compression and rebound simutaneously. Start in the middle. Ideal is double adjustable, and even better is where you can adjust low speed and high speed seperately. Having said that, QA1 does know their stuff.

You want the shocks just firm enough to settle things down right after the bump. Are they set too soft maybe?

Oh - and what are your alignment settings?
