Ok... that's along the lines of what I was thinking... I've had mine set on 5 for a while... Was thinking of playing with them to see what I like, but always forget to do it in the end.

I might try to set around 3 and see what that feels like.

I was also wondering if the left/right settings might differ slightly... I know in some suspensions (eibach drag kit for one) they put a bag in the pass side. I assume to pump up and stiffen out the suspension on that side? Maybe set pass on 4 and drivers on 3, or is this crazy talk?

Body roll isn't a big deal for me... I live down in FL and all the roads are straight.

Lol good one!

Body roll is a big deal no matter where you live. I mean when you throw it into corners and your car wants to keep going in that one direction and your shocks are too soft to keep all 4 on the ground, youre gonna roll it. So just be careful on what strength you set your shocks to.
