Think I agree with you. The stock fronts are about the same softness as my elkas but still bottomed out unlike the elkas and rebound is too quick on the stock ones. I think I should have done my rear shocks first because my rears feel like steel poles which is great for drifting but beats me up on the trails since I'm very light. My next step is Wiigstyle redo my rears.The fronts are not great, not as bad as the backs IMO though.
