Ground controls ftw.

You can adjust ride height to your liking, and you can order custom spring rates/lengths.

(car looks sick btw)

I have the eibach pro-kit on mine and it dropped it about an 1" to 1 1/2" and the ride is not too brutal. I can still clear most driveways and all speedbumps with no issues. Basically, they're pretty decent for the street. I have not tracked them yet.

Yes, the go directly over the strut and sit on the perch (depending on what type of strut you have) I believe Tockico's and KYB's use the same collar but Koni's are different as are some other brands. Just let them know what brand you have when you order.

To adjust it, all you do is jack up the car, loosen the allen screw in the collar and turn it by hand.
