It doesn't matter what you you use, you are wrong. Adding preload to get back to factory ride height does not and physically can not increase ride stiffness.

You are insane. Go add a inch of preload and tell me you can’t tell a difference in the ride

I have. No difference, when adding preload to get back to stock ride height...🤷

Any changes you would feel would have to do with suspension geometry, the spring rate and load on the spring are the exact same.

if factory ride height is 14' and I change the tires to 32" from 29" then would i set my ride height at 15.5" ?

In theory yes, but it depends on the actual height of both, which is unlikely 32" or 29"...
The most accurate way is to set driveshaft angle to 14-15°.

I assume you mean axle angle and that is very much dependant on the, driving style, terrain, and machine. I've seen setups from -5-6 degrees to 30 degrees, all depends on various factors. Shock up / down travel is a better methodology. Not sure why people are so up up on "X" ride height based on GC, it's irrelevant. Just my 2 cents 🤷‍♂️

If you are asking a question about ride height like this, you are definitely not ready to adjust ride height based on terrain or other factors. Probably best to keep it simple until they actually need or want to take that kind of thing into consideration.....

So for those riding on 32”. Where are you with ride height? I bought the sxs with 32” on it so I don’t know where is sat stock. I replaced the springs and didn’t measure before replacing. Don’t want to be too low or too high. Looking for a safe sweet spot.

You want 2/3 of your travel up, 1/3 down, so at ride height you will have about 1/3 of your shock shaft showing.
A 14-15° axle angle should get you about that, or jack up the machine off the ground and measure how much shock shaft you have, then set accordingly.

Look up the factory ride height (front and rear) for your car and add 1/2 the difference between tire sizes that your car would have come with. For example, if yours came with 29" and you have 32" now, half of 3" is 1.5".... Add 1.5" to the factory spec front and rear. This is just a generalized starting point and you can adjust form there based on your riding style.

You might measure the actual height of the tires are the 29 or the 32 actually 29" or 32"
