I've been running 3F/2R. Would have been 3 all around but the rear passengers complained a little.

I have them set to 3F/4R since I installed them earlier this year. Along with the S-Techs make the ride just right.

This is one concern of mine. My wife is pregnant and the baby is due at the first of October. I have a set of Tein H-Techs on the way and some Illuminas sitting at home. I want better ride quality and comfort than handling and control.

whats the equevalent setting between blues and illuminas. i have blues with s-techs and it rides not to bad but i know it can be better. i been in a tein ss set up and it felt smoother. im thinking about switching but if illuminas are a big improvement over blues then thats more money in my pocket.
