Just fitted some to my b. Havent driven it yet as its not got an mot but gave them a basic setting of 20 clicks on the adjuster as they were wound all the way out when they came to me. Without driving its a job to know but what is everyone else setting them to? Im after a car i can drive and be comfortable in but know it can take abit of abuse when i want it to? Cheers

set them to soft and go out on a drive, adjusting as you go.

I'd have the back harder than the front

Did consider this but after having a push on each corner i thought it might be abit too soft? Although i suppose it cant harm it can it... Mot is booked for next tuesday so i will try and have a play before then

Dont have them really low on the soft setting they will pop the seals in no time.

I had mine set a couple inches from bottom of the thread then front shocks at 5 clicks and rears at 10 for normal driving... Was comfy then on track or when giving it some abuse turn the rears up but leave the fronts. Makes it nicely oversteery

20 clicks on the front will probably induce a lot of understeer

I've always had my fronts set a lot harder than the rears. Found it handles better.

iirc that would cause understeer when pushed

Ahh I see, not had it on a track so maybe not pushed it enough to feel the oversteer then.
