But work with the damping first, that is what it is there for.
If the don't work then I say a softer springs rate will help.

That's why I bought your coilovers with the softer spring rates. Still loving them a year later

You certainly can adjust height via spring perch, but the BC's (and their multi-colored derivatives) are designed to move the suspension mounting point and leave the spring perch in a set place to adjust ride height.





I won't argue about which is better, lots of ways to skin a cat.
