Default Fox Coilovers 2.5

Hey guys was curious If anyone was running the Fox coilovers? I have the 2.5 with the reservoirs and also running the Icon control arms to try and Improve the ride on my truck. I understand that a lot factors in, like Tire size, type of tire, Rim size, offset etc. I noticed the ride quality did not improve as much as I thought it would, and was curious If anyone had any suggestions on what else I can do to improve the ride quality? I'm no mechanic by any means, but any and all help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Do you have the DCS? I finally messed with them today after running them like they came for about 6 months. I set them to all the way to low on high/low speed and it was a pretty big difference. Much more forgiving ride.

I do not have the DSC adjuster, which makes me wonder If there is any other option?

What tires are you running? Honestly that is going to be head and shoulders above the largest factor.

Yup. I did suspension first for 10,000 miles front and rear and truck drove like a freaking dream. Threw heavier, larger tires on there and the ride changed dramatically.

I totally agree, and I am running a pretty cheap tire. Atturo trail blade mt 35x12.5R22 I have heard a lot of good things about Nitto tires, may end up getting some sooner or later..
