The front you can't use the 4th, it interfere with the light hight adjustment on the driver side. The first and second were too stiff in relation to the rear. on the rear, I broke the rear using the stiff settings. Before I broke it, I was mostly on the middle hole (70% stiffer that stock) The majority of my track days were on 70% front an d rear, but I feel that the front was stiffer than it should have been. Because the front was on 70%, I had to put the rear on at least 70% to fight normal understeer tendency of the M3. To make long story short, I switches to H&R which are non adjustable and 50% stiffer than stock front and rear. Because it is non adjustable, the end is like OEM length and does not interfere with the light hight adjuster. |

FWIW I'm using them and I'm in middle stiffness in the front and full soft in the rear. I have not had understeer issues. However you run a narrow front tire - that could be a contributing factor. There's also dampening settings that can influence understeer. As you know, sway bars are one of multiple ways to adjust under/over steer characteristics.

But I am using custom end links up front made by KW for my desired ride height range, so I'd expect it to work with no issues.. |

However, the last hole is 50% stiffer than stock,which is what the H&R are. Because I do have adjustable shocks, I went to the H&R and sold the Hotchkis. I can stiffen up the front with the JRZ controls. For stock suspension the Hotchkis are a good, inexpensive, solution to stiffen up the front. I had only 2 trackdays on the H&R. Before I broke the Hotchkis (set on stiffer 92% from stock) I was driving them on the middle hole. (70%) most of the time. With the Rear H&R, (50% over stock) I adjusted the JRZ one click stiffer and it felt about the same. I will know more in 2020. Anyway, I have had many trackdays on the Hotchkis front and rear on 70% and it is a good option. |
