do not adjust the height using the springs.

DO NOT!

they have a full threaded tube chassis that adjusts teh height w/o affecting the pre-load

I learned this the hard way....i readjusted my springs after a certain "friend" at sema lowered my car using the springs...then pete from BC lowered them from teh chassis...well last week in HIN preperation I redid teh spring rates and BAM.....you couldn't even see the top of my tires....i have pics somewhere...but the car looked like it was on bags it was so low!

To clarify...the more I think about it, it may have been the BOV rubbing the front tire and not bottoming out that made the noise. But I think I still need to stiffen her up. Thanks again Noah.

Sorry for the OT, but I love the BC coilovers so far. Good Luck to the OP.

Any word on the long term update...please keep us posted. Any deterioration, or change in height or adjustments , recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks.
