What left front shocks are common? Slightly banked dry 1/4 mile. Metric bms with nova lowers.

Probably something around a 5c 3r is what your looking for the most aggresive ive seen or used is a 6c 2r for the lf

Consider what your car is doing.... Less rebound as described will transfer weight quicker to the RR. Not that 1 way or the other is correct but consider what you are needing or wanting.

Just 2 cents worth.

I had a blisten 3030 on it and liked the way it felt. But it got destroyed. And right now my 3 choices are a 9-1 a 5 or a 3-5 until I can get one ordered Tomorrow. Haven't got this car 100% dialed so wanted to hear what most people kinda ran for a ball park. Until I get the car to feel comfortable so I can feel what a shock change will do.

I would start with the straight 5 for hot laps and heat, then switch to the 9/1 if the track got REAL slick. That 9/1 will make the car tighter in and off......good luck

I would throw on the 3-5. Permanently.

If its a 30/50 bilstein, then its a 3 rebound and 5 compression. I would run it
