I stand corrected, sir! I spoke with the HKS engineer in Japan, and he said they make the best effort to send out the unit with the settings that's close to being balanced for the front/rear distribution of the weight. Obviously, those concerns I had applies, and the car will not truly be balanced, but it would be a good starting point.

The out-of-the-box setting was rear being 1mm taller as far the ride height goes. I'm running about 4mm shorter in the rear instead. So, I may have a little more weight in the rear than their "balanced" set up. But I'm not exactly the smallest guy either at 195lbs, so by accident, I may be close. :-)
