I think it is supposed to be at the second ring..anyone have any comments on ride height at this setting. Thanks again to Jim S. for the free (used) set.

I believe it's rear, all the way down; front, one up from bottom (if adjustable).

Default Yea, i'm thinking about that too. But i have 18s coming.
Should i just follow the User Review one? Setting Front 3 and Rear 4 since the spring in rear is a bit higher than the fronts

Default There are so many variations of the perched Bilsteins now.
Mine are set 4/5 in front (second lowest) and 4/4 in rear (lowest).

I wanna go lower in the front, you think the H&R Race Spring Set would be too low?
