megan lp coils
i have the megan lp coils on my is250
i was wondering if riding fully maxed out on the damper settings is bad for them?
i am going to run an aggressive offset and i dont want to ruin my fenders

I would never want to run the dampers at the extreme settings (full soft or full stiff).
I see the same comments all the time: "set it full stiff". This is NOT the solution. Most single adjustment dampers only allows you to control rebound... not compression. If your springs are compressing to the point where your tires are hitting the fenders, you've got the wrong spring rate. You need stiffer springs. Even if you can adjust compression, you do not want to rely on the shocks to reduce suspension travel. These adjustment ***** are there for fine-tuning. They're not made to compensate for the wrong spring rates.
