Changing stiffness setting on them only changes how much bouncy they are, which is better then 100% stiff i guess. If fronts are too stiff then i'd imagine that rear would feel ok at 10 but even rear is very stiff
What is the setting on your shocks? Compression, Rebound?

is there a way to set this? to me it seems that there is no/very little compression. The only way for me to adjust is the clicks on top, which i have set at 5 clicks from soft, which makes it pretty bouncy but the only way for me to drive, any more stiff and i'm hitting the roof with my head when i hit a bump, i'm not even joking, my butt is doing the compression.
