I run with a 20 mm drop front and rear, i need a corner balance, but it works pretty well on the track. I run the clickers at 16 front 14 rear on the street.

how do you guys adjust the height in the front? sorry for the thread jack but i just installed these and i find the instructions to be a bit ambiguous. all you do is loosen the 'lower collar' and just spin the body (the threaded part of the cylinder) either left or right? cause i cant spin the damn body one bit

whatever you want it it be. that is the beauty of coilovers. you can choose how low to go. the only way to set the car to how you like it is to try different setting out and then keep the one you like.


it is like asking "what exhaust sounds the best" or "which speakers should i buy" questions; what may be good for one person might not be the same for someone else.
