TEIN Coilovers proper shock setting

[Bogie Bog]

Hello Fellow PRIMERS!!!

I've noticed that my rear tires are wearing out. Others have mentioned that I need to go adjust the rear shock to a more "softer" ride and the front should be a little bit "stiff".

Does anyone know the right combo settings to get the feel of a stock ride? There is a total of 16 settings. I believe I have mine set at about 8 clicks in the front and about 11 clicks in the back.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Sounds more like a camber issue rather then a suspension setting. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure the suspension setting I'll not wear your tires out. Just my $.02

My monoflex's were a little stiffer than stock at a mid setting (8 clicks) so you could even go softer than that if you want a more "stock" feel.

Thanks. Is yours "8 clicks" front and back?

Sounds more like a Toe + Camber issue. Rapid rear tire wearout is common with the NSX because of the alignment specs.

The best way to get the stock ride is to get the OEM springs & struts.

You usually adjust the dampening for adjusting oversteer/understeer characteristics and for track conditions. Use this to help you fine tune it:

Yeah front and back, I dont track the car or anything so I keep it all symetrical to simplify things.
