Default how do you adjust coils?

Ive never owned a set and want to get some. Do you need to take the wheels off in order to adjust them each time? Then what happens if you needed a little more lower on side. Do you need to take the wheel off again to adjust, lol? Kind of a pain

their are different kinds of coilovers, their are ones in which you compress the spring and ones like megans which you spin the bottom to adjust height..
Unfortunatly you do have to take off the wheel, its not as hard as you think lol...
basically what i do is jack it up, take the wheel off, adjust height put the wheel back on and put it on the ground without lugs, well maybe one lug so the wheel isnt all crooked as hell lol.. if i were to do it again id get coilovers that were easier to adjust than my megans i hate having to unbolt the bottom err..
