I have my fronts set on 5 (350lb/in coilovers = >800lb/in in stock location) and my rears on 4.
If you have stock springs, 3 should work pretty well.

I run 95 Cobra R spring 750-800 lb/in front and 200-260 lb/in rear. Any Sugestion as to where I can start messing with them as far a setting for normal driving on the city streets ??
Thanks
