Cool Hell yeah!

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful. I have got the same ones and damn do they make a difference. Just remember, your that much lower, and you are going to need to learn how to pull in driveways at an angle, avoid speed bumps and sometimes your going to need to back in, verses pulling in. Oh, one more thing, don't hit the curb stops. the front will become flat. Congrats!

are you talkin to me? thanks for the tips, but pretty much everything i get my hands on gets dumped if i own it long enough. i have been driving lowered cars for about 7 or 8 years so i dont need to learn anything new. glad to see another KY brother on this site, there arent many fitfreaks in KY apparently.

So in other words, the point you're trying to get across to everyone but, clearly cannot since it's quite obvious you're more into suspension for form over function, is that these coilovers offer a preload adjustment. Also, not ALL "full body coilovers" offer a preload adjustment, as this is more of a common practice with motorcycle suspension over automotive suspension.

However, while I'm so boldly inserting myself into this topic.... just out of curiosity what are the spring rates offered with the Skunk 2 Pro C's, and even though I unfortunately cannot see it clearly from the photographs provided, are these dampening adjustable?

go to their website for the tech on these. they are dampening adj and yes you can adjust the spring preload on all full body coilovers i have ever seen. if you raise the top perch, it will compress the spring, giving it preload, i have mine set without any.
