My PSS9's are now set at full soft from their previous setting of full hard. I may set them in the middle next time I drive the car. Full soft is still much firmer than the original factory stuff.

Do a search, lots of talk about settings in the recent past.
I set mine at 6 front 4 rear. Will add 2 for aggressive mountain driving. Thinking of droppin. It 2 for a little softer city driving.

If you have a CD player, anything but the full soft #1 setting will cause the CD's to skip constantly. Around town, I drive with the PSS10's set to 1, and for Autocross I
set the rears from to 6 to 8 with the fronts set from 3 to 4. Of course everyone has there own preference. Play around with settings, that's the beauty of the PSS10's. The wheel diameter also plays a big role in the ride selection. I have 18's and I think they make the ride a bit harsher.

I am at 5F and 6R with M030 sways, and my cd player does not skip on bad roads!
A full firm 10 setting, and 18" rims, would be too rough for me on poor quality concrete LA freeways, but it could be awesome on high quality asphalt European roads.
The wheels and tires (sidewall stiffness) have a big impact on ride quality.
I noticed a difference between the Pirellis and softer Bridgestones on the same size rims.
Going from 17s to 18s also had a significant impact, although the car handles so much better with the 18s!

On my Cab. I'm running 5 front and 5 rear for the street. I'm thinking of changing the rear to 6 or going down to 4 front because the car seems to porpoise a bit on the rougher roads. Equal front and rear are not ideal as I think most on here will agree. For autocross I like 6 front 8 or 9 rear and for the track I like 5F 7R.

I have PSS10s and RUF 19"s, have been playing around with settings over the past few weeks. Currently set on full soft (1), and am probably going to leave them there for daily driving. Still feels quite stiff given the 19s, hadn't really realized just how crappy the LA freeways are.

7 front 6 rear 98 c2s with 18" turbo twist. I had them set much softer but it was a little bouncy and made the steering a little twitchy. This setting makes the car feel locked to the road. But it's great to have a set up that can be adjusted. I would hate to be locked in with standard struts and springs.
