I think it’s a combination of ride height and too stiff rebound - still working on it

I don't but I believe it is 1.25" below stock (about 32mm). I think I will be happier around 20mm lower than stock like the X73

They were on the car when I bought it so not exactly sure, but I have the wheels off to change the spark plugs tomorrow so I took a look and it seems there's ~1.25" from the bottom of the collar to the end of the threads.

Thank you - I may have been given incorrect information so I truly appreciate this. I suspect the car was set to KW factory recommendations and maybe turned harder on bump and rebound a few clicks. As a daily driver it’s harsh enough to be unsatisfactory. Thanks again
