I am having my Megan Coilovers installed tomorrow to fix the weak spring issue on my old Tein lowering springs.

Questions - What did you do ride height-wise? I am hearing that the out-of-the box is 1.5" lowering, the Tein's were 2". I am thinking of taking the 1/2 raise to get a little bit off the ground.

How hard is it to change ride height after you do the install??

What Spring Pre-Load did you use?? The factory guy I called said leave at 0

Thanks,

News flash, if you have a Q45 Touring the Megan Coilovers do NOT work. They are only designed to fit the standard Q45. I had no idea that the bolts in the spindle are 12 MM on the standard but 14mm on the Touring. Who knew, well I found out he hard way.
