Do nitrons (or any new shocks) get "worn in"

[davido140]

Evening,

I had some Nitrons fitted about 4 weeks ago, done about 500 miles since, they were awesome when fitted but seem to be getting a bit "wibbly wobbly" at higher speeds, I was thinking of sticking them up (or is it down?) a click or two but was curious as to wheter they got bedded in after a while and would need adjusting again as standard?

Cheers

Mine didn't. But I did adjust them a few times until I felt I was getting the best out of them.

Did you have the rest of the suspension done and properly set up?

The old shocks may have masked problems in other parts of the steering.

They shouldn't vary on damping control but springs settle and if they drop too much on the rear for instance, the car could start to understeer and in extreme conditions you could start hitting bumpstops.
The Nitron springs don't generally settle that much but I would always suggest a re-visit to the installer after 300/500 miles to check ride height and a discussion as to whether the car is performing to expectations and driving styles..
