I bought them from you. What makes you assume that I've done no research on suspensions thereafter?

These coilovers once dialed in for me were good thoughbut had a NASTY tendency for snap oversteer at the limit, even when running front shocks at 7 and rears as soft as 2. Not very confidence inspriring but did handle well once you get used to them.

I now run 14/14k MONO Flex, and love them. Stiffer springs but they dont feel that way the dampening is much better. I love the EDFC, and when drag racing on slicks I can fine tune to my liking. Overal, these are better suited for my style of driving and power, they understeer at the limit slightly, and for me thats perfect because oversteer is a 1/2 throttle away...with sway bars Im positive I can dial it neutral or even some oversteer but Im happy with the switch.
was wondering how low can you go with the MONO flex?

Low enough for anyone's needs. Im actually running my Flex 3/4" higher than I did my JIC's for better camber and more clearance for my lip, but the adjustment is there...
