It was difficult to lower the car much, especially with the firmer springs. Travel was overall a little bit lacking. We would have preferred that they came without camber plates which has been something we've always thought with Ohlins standard plates. Running with stock top mounts would have been nice or subbing in a higher quality camber plate with caster adjustment.

Overall, very good coilovers that with a few changes would be great coilovers. Softer springs and valving is not a change we would have made and I'm surprised that's the direction they went.

Hi Andrew, I'm itching to try stiffer rates on my MI20 kit before committing to a revalve in the future and was wondering if you would recommend the 8K setup you had as a square setup or perhaps a 7F/8R? My car currently has an understeer bias from aero (wing, diffuser out back with splitter up front). Thanks!
