Sorry for derailing the thread but the whole point of coilovers is that you can adjust its "height" without deinstalling the whole system and installing it again is this correct?
Or do you still need to remove everything to do so? Like how hard is it to change car height once coils are installed?

Just out of curiosity are those steel wheels? Why would you put your car on those? Presumably all this will do is increase unsprung weight quite a lot making it worse to drive?

i think the main idea behind it is to start out cheap without spending 600-700 pound on new wheels.
painted steel looks cool imo =)
