I set illuminas to 2 front, 2 back...is that fine?
I have them paired with H&R springs. I used to have them 3 front 3 back as recommended here on the org as the starting settings. However, I notice that 2,2 handles much much better.
Yes, it's way stiffer also. So I just wonder what force was best for you guys. I'm still experimenting with it. 2 front, 2 back seems to be a very good setup. I just hope it won't make the shocks blow faster or cause a breakdown of some sort.

I find 2 all around is a nice soft yet controlled ride with H&R springs. (The best combo of ride and handling!) 2F/3R gives you a bit more of a sports car ride, awsome for high speed highway driving. 3 all around is slightly stiff, great for the twisties. Anything higher then that is getting a bit to firm and starts to produce a slightly harsh ride for everyday driving but is probably excellent for handling at the track or agressive driving on a Saturday afternoon.
On the other extream, 1 all around makes the car feel like a caddy with a very soft pillow like ride. On nice smooth highway's, that setting is like riding on a cloud, almost a bit to soft for a progressive spring.
