That’s a good review, you said you haven’t touched or adjusted them since the install, did you get former balanced or what stiffness are you running on them?
The settings that I ended up using were actually the middle settings. Cannot remember the exact turn/click number, but I set them in the middle on initial install and found no need for adjustment. They suit my needs perfectly where they are. Thanks for asking 🤛
just a quick heads up...using WD-40 or similar on the threads will attract dust and dirt. bbecause it leaves a film behind, that film helps dirt cling. Have you thought about a dry protectant/lube to protect the threads? what about coil-over socks/gators; something breatale, but keeps 99% of the dirt and debris off of the threads?
I've used those socks/gators in the past, but not on my car. I used them on my race quads back in the day. That was an extreme condition, but what I found then was the dirt that did creep past them ground into the springs wearing the finish off etc. As for the dry lube, didn't honestly think about that, but that is a very good idea and thanks for posting that up I appreciate it.
From the site it appears as though the main differences are the valving & spring rates as well as ride height adjustment. The Comfort setup uses different valving and softer 7K springs as well as a long travel setup. They can be raised to .3" higher than stock and dropped to 1.8" lower than stock. The Classics use stiffer 8K springs and valving and have a height adjustment of .75" above stock down to 3" below stock. The above is on the base setups that you buy prepackaged. The setups can be custom built for whatever you want for your application.

What is your spring rate setup for your front and rear coils?
9K Swift both front and rear.
