    I just put my Maxpeedingrods coilovers on today (thanks again for the promo code btw) and my ride height is the exact same as yours. I want to go a little lower in the front and about a inch lower in the rear. I'm going to use the preload to get the car lower. If the ride becomes too stiff, I'll just lower the damper settings to make the ride sporty but comfortable

      I've had problems with them, I couldn't believe that the back can't be lowered anymore until I've seen that video, but I have yet another problem, it's stiff, very stiff, unbelievable, I don't know what's the problem, I want to lower them more than it can, but how

    If I wanted to raise my ride height, would I turn the topmost collar the other direction, or would I need to turn on the middle collar?

    • @BulletSolano
      @BulletSolano  ปีที่แล้ว

      Remove the coilover get all the tension from the spring out and set the preload, when you have the spring with no tension just go up like 5mm and that’s the preload, then set the coilover back into the car and lowered to your liking
