Ohlins R&T Set up Question

[bcrdukes]

Muskoka Minute,

At one point in time, I considered the Ohlins R&T and wanted the full meal deal with camber plates and all. In the end, I ended up getting the Koni Special Active shocks lowered on H&R sport springs. I am running a set of Vorshlag Motorsports adjustable camber and caster plates up front.

After dialing in a semi-street/track alignment with our mutual shop in town (you know which one I am talking about) and after driving around for a bit, I felt that it was too aggressive and absolutely unnecessary. To be fair, they did caution me, and I knew what I was getting myself into as the original plan was to hit the track with the regional PCA club, then COVID lockdowns happened so that never materialized.

I went back to a much more milder street setting and quite happy with it. If your car is only going to be for the street, lowering it may not be all the bees knees as its made out to be. My biggest regret was lowering the car - the car scrapes on parking lot speed bumps here in the city. Otherwise, I'm enjoying the car.
