Hmmm, you got an answer from me as if you didn't already have them...

What Jason says is correct, but it CAN also be done with tire pressure, especially since the rears need to be removed to soften them. We'll be doing that at National events in hopefully about 20 minutes.

As far as the Cooper, if you don't have the SSP, then the shocks help you a little more than the help the Cooper S (SSP standard).

I would definitely recommend going full firm in the rear if you haven't already. Remember to back off 1/4 turn, you never want it fully tweaked on the Konis.

thanks guys! I started to think maybe I had wasted the money but then realized that I can feel a difference, so thats good enough for me. I didn't order the SS+ but did retrofit it before the season began. so, I'm thinking that it makes up for the shocks I didn't get. either way, I'm happy :smile: maybe I'll upgrade to DAs next season... I think I've spent enough on upgrades this year.... ok, my husband thinks I've spent enough lol
