    Started at the recommended 6 clicks from Full (hard) and that was a bit painful on old roads and portions of freeway, but 2 more clicks at 8 (softer) seems perfect. Feels more like stock again even at this height. (out of box height is pretty much slammed with no rake.) It's perfect. They told me the regular Prius has a little rake at out of the box height with this kit because the car is lighter in the back but they (Evasive Motorsports) were amazed how no height adjustment was necessary on the Plug-in to bring it down in the rear.

    If you're down South - (SoCal) I would recommend Ultimate Shield in Orange, CA. Talk to Sean.
