Help setting up Tokico Illuminas please

I decided to go ahead and baby my Maxima a little bit and replace the tired and worn out stock shocks on my Intrax springs setup. I have already bought the Illuminas for all 4 corners, but I have yet to install them (due to lack of work and paychecks).

When i do go to get them installed, what is the best settings to go for?

I know that it depends on what I want as far as ride goes, but what is your experience?

Last question: How easy is it to adjust the settings on these things? Thanks all.

Where have you been? Are you coming to the Stone Mountain meet?

I have been mostly at home and the unemployment office. Being out of work for a month really sucks, but I guess I needed a vacation. Just doing a lot of home modifications and cleanup. Just got a cable modem not too long ago so that helps with the job search. I might make it up there - just have to see how things are looking

I set mine at 1/2... This is with H&R springs though.. Feels almost stock SE, but bit firmer. No problem driving around cr@ppy roads in NY/NJ. You'll love those Illumina's.

hehe.. forgot about that part... the fronts are real simple. Pop the hood open and turn the dial with a screwdriver. The rears, you'll have to pull the carpet to access the mounts and turn it with screwdriver. For the rears, you can either keep the dial on or off.. so if you keep it off, then it's just small extra step to put it back on.

Thanks for the help you two. My car is in the shop now and I was wondering what to tell him to put the dials on. At least it won't be to hard to adjust and find out where I like it best.
