Whats the start setting when you fit them?

Then whats the average setting for a Chim.

As you may have worked out,not a set of new shocks
Hi, mine are set at about 5 or 6 clicks clockwise, try it at that and see how it goes, its a bit of trial and error, I set mine too hard when I first fitted them, all the car did was wheelspin when pulling away as the back didnt go down enough to get some weight on the tyres. I think the height setting is about 140mm from the ground to the outrigger corner plate, make sure the car is level and settled on the shocks first though, if I am wrong I'm sure someone on here will put it right.

140 FRONT 160 REAR, you can lower this by about 10mm if you like a lower look.

The nose needs to be lower for stability.
