Default Ride on H&R Coilovers?

For every day driving (an hour to and from work), can this system be set so that it's reasonably comfortable?

the ride is fine, a bit softer than I wanted actually. Stasis will probably replace these later

Default did you find the intrax setup bouncy?

I had it slammed, and I know that wasnt helping. Ever since raising it up, the ride has improved a bit. Have you noticed a lot of bounciness? I set the dampening all around the the highest setting. this is with the race springs, and intrax c/o's.

Can you please explain the adjustments for the front, just to make sure i did do it correctly. I notice "floatiness" at high speeds.

I have a few other things i need to check over...but any input would help.

Default Like mine. They don't handle as good as my older Stasis setups, but...

the livability is better... and I have yet to track the car as I thought I would when I got it.
