Default Bc coilovers damper settings

Hey guys I am still fairly new and post rarely, but i would appreciate any feed back about these coil overs (got them from circuit motorsports, great service btw). I have an 06 awd gs300 i have a w6 installed, LED lights, black suede headliner, Jp Vizage kit, xm install, iphone isimple kit, and now the BC Coilovers. Those who have these do you know the best damper settings for them, i want it to ride like stock while not bottoming out. I am lowering it to one finger gap and plan to put 20s on soon.

Thanks

depends on how low u go with the 20's. Try 15 in the front and rear and adjust from there, but you won't have stock ride quailty anymore

thanks for your input, the shop left them at 15 clicks, seems to ride a little stiff so i made change in a few days after they settle in.

It will also depend on how low you go. If you are really low, you will want it to be stiffer so that you don't bottom out. I have to stiffen mine up when I have 5 heads in the car or I will bottom out.
