Suspension settling?
Hey guys will a used set of coilovers settle at all? Or does that just happen with new ones?

Mine were used, but it took 2 days or so before the setup settled.

It will still settle a little bit with used but not as much as new. How much lower do you want, that's what you getting at right

How much more do you have on the shocks to go down? How much thread is left? Slam it all the way down if you want

how low do you want it to go? i have mine adjusted to 1 finger in the front, and its causing me problems already with the camber wear. Unless you want to get new tires every 8-10 months, you shouldn't go lower than 1 finger gap.
