Default i have a set of Variant IIs....

i am pretty sure i have my shocks set to middle of the ground, but overall the ride quality has improved but it is still a stiff ride.

its not that hard to adjust the height, but unless you have a lift, you need to remove the wheel and then adjust them with the wrenches.

Default setting depends on your driving style...

i have mine at track events and leave it that way for the street. most that sit in my car like the cornering. i find it a little bouncy on the highway... it almost seems like the rebound is not a fast....
as for raising and lowering the car, well, it would mean you have use the adjustment tools once you have the wheels off. Make sure you do this evenly on all corners.
if you want to change the shock settings, thei would mean you have to take the assembly apart. can be a real pita... make sure you set it the way you like it.
