I decided to run about only 20% rebound for now on. I use to run 100% all the time, but what was happening to me was that in Mains after lots of jumping the bladders would start to deform slightly causing my car to lose ride height. In turn the handling got poor as the main wore on as well as the jumping causing the car to bottom out. With 20% rebound, as the main wears on, you dont feel the negative effect as much as their isnt much rebound to lose. When it boils down to it, you want your shock to be consistent as possible over a long period of time and I was able to acheive this better with less rebound.
