Default PSS9 has damping adjustment. You can set them for your needs...

and dial out understeer as well. No brainer choice.

Default the only reason I didn't go with the H&R is because

of their bad rep with the rear springs.. a lot of people have complained about their rear springs making noises, but H&R revised the design something like 3 times.. and I think they still squeek

Default i love the H&Rs, but that may be because i have them

who needs adjustment when H&Rs already come perfectly adjusted? =)

the squeek can be fixed easily, just ask H&R for rear spring sheeths BEFORE u do the install. a pain that you have to do this, but H&Rs have the beehive type rear spring that allows enough compression even with a 2" drop.

Figured out a way to adjust the fronts without removing the wheels?

Default height wise?

if your talking about the stiffness. you can simply turn the wheel.. thats what I do.. not as fast as the rears but its all good..
