Had these on vec set to hardest and liked it....Never bothered softening them up.
NOW got them on corsa now and they are also set to hardest...Ride is a BIT too firm at times...
As I've never adjusted them before how much of a difference does it make? if I soften them a bit,,
Going to do it anyway and experiment but thought I would get opinions too.........from all the knowledgeable ppl on here

I fitted mine last week, tried it soft, half way and hard,
TBH there wasnt a huge difference!
The corsa is much smaller and lighter so will feel all the bumps!
Just enjoy it!! ha ha

I'm on Koni adjustables, -60mm springs, they arent good enough with having a 2litre in the front, keep bottoming out, will have to get some stiffer ones from Courtenay.
I find they are either soft or hard, bit of a pain to set em where ya want em, the adjuster is like an ON or OFF switch.

like you say, theres not many smooth roads to really find out
my handles well IMO, doesnt understeer and tucks nicley into cornrers, becasue the back it light it has a degree of lift of oversteer which is very contorlable
