From 1 being the softest and ten being the stiffest, I've been running 10f/7r for a while. I think I'm going to drop it to 4f/1r later

Thanks, but I hate these wheels. I'll be on the market for new wheels after I finish up the motor.

My car isn't as slammed as most:

I have 3.75 inches of clearance from the ground to the bottom of my front sway bar. I can go over speed bumps with no issues at all and the same with driveway entrances. If 1 was softest I run 1 in the front and 3 in the back. I have no problem with the stiffness and the car grips like a mofo. I do have issues with my collars coming loose tho.

mine is 10(f) 8(r). i love the way it feels and avoiding potholes and not being able to drive in certain places due to massive speed bumps. if you don't look like your driving drunk, you're not driving right.
