    wouldn't he have found more benefit keeping the 885's and setting the 5100's at 0? Ride quality should be much better I would think letting the springs do the lifting for him and not the struts

    Yep, he definitely would. Myself and a couple others tried to convince him to do that earlier in the thread, but he decided not to. Oh well!

    Yep thanks I was trying to be diplomatic in asking a question I already knew the answer to. For you to get the true benefit of both ride and performance the Bilsteins need to be left at 0 or .85 at the most. I never care to seem like a know it all but this I know through being educated by other TW members and trial and error myself. Trying to be polite
