Not sure exactly, but they seem to have the same range of hight adjustment as most any other coilover.

Good choice, you can't go wrong with the Stance SES's.

Nice. Did you have any problems with MR Coilovers. All though they are cheap i heard many had problems with them. Like a weird sound in the rear.

I rarely see any coilover system that does not make some sort of distinct sound. No problems at all with the MR coilovers.

I heard the megan's are horribly valved and are not the best performer. What have you all seen? My friend has a 98 supra with them and he is always complaining about how harsh the ride is.

Mine ride suprisingly well for having 10k/8k springs. And they're 32 way adjustable, when set on the soft side they ride very nice.

Are they the best? Course not... But IMO they are great for the price.

He probably has not adjusted the settings correctly.
