so i finally got my intrax sport springs (set #2) in the mail and just got it installed. i'm using koni shocks and got em set to 3/4 from stiffest in front and 1 turn from stiffest in the back. i must say that it handles much better! i originally had another koni/intrax setup but found out much later that they were actually S4 motorola cup springs and not A4. that explained my 3-finger front/1-1/2 finger rear gap.
it's now at a tight 2 finger gap in the rear, and about 2-1/2 finger gap up front. driver side front sits almost 3 fingers. [

now for the point of this thread: who here has this setup, and what is your gap (in terms of fingerheight) in front and rear? and how long did it take for the springs to fully settle? i hope i'm not running yet ANOTHER set of S4 springs. please advise, as this is starting to bug me just a little. thanks guys!

I had the front shocks regrooved 1" lower and just moved the perch down and the car sat perfect all the way around.
I also had a set of the Intrax A4 sport springs before these with stock non sport shocks and I had a 2 finger gap all the way around.

and it took a good 2 months for the suspension to settle. For quite some time I would wake up and find the left rear tire tucked all the way in the well, over the course of the day it would rise back up.
Finally, there is no settling of the suspension I am left with 1 finger on both the fronts, and no gap on the rears (tucked). My car is on 5/6 stiffness setting
