Dinan Koni settings

Does anybody know what the Dinan settings are on the Koni Yellows when paired to their spring set? This is for a 228i.

Thanks

Installed the Koni Yellows on the weekend using the supplied settings, and it is so much better than the factory struts, the suspension feels complete now. If you don't want coilovers this is a great way to go.

This has been discussed. It's adaptive suspension, so you're talking about a MAJOR expense and MAJOR R&D ...

... speaking of: Dinan has tried for months to adapt its Shockware software for the predictive system of the M235i. It can't crack the source code. That said, it has done it for the 228i with THP (which includes the same -- but not quite, apparently -- suspension as the M235i).

So I wouldn't hold out hope. If Dinan can't do it, I doubt anyone else will.
