tokico illuminas...which setting is stiff?

I think it's five...but I don't have the manual. I always leave them on three, and then when it's time to have fun I forget if one is stiff or five is stiff. I'm going to mark the underside of the black cap on the front struts.

right on.

I usually run mine at mid setting. I also notice a difference in stiffness when the temperature changes. Still haven't found that SEM color card.

I usually put mine 4 in the front. 3 in the rear for the street. 2 in the rear handels better, but the tires rub over bumps.

Thanks guys...I might try running them a little stiffer in the front now. I've never experimented much with the combinations.

Right on.
