Coilover question
This is a question for those who have or have dealt with coilovers. I just installed a set of H&R Coilovers this weekend and was wondering... What method do you guys use to establish an even ride height. I'm having a little trouble getting everything adjusted evenly. I've got the two sets of wheels within 3/16ths of each other. Is this close enough or should the two fronts be exact and the two rears be exact? Any info will be helpfull. Thanks.

I used the raise . .adjust .. lower move the car to settle . .raise adjust method :) Trial and error
Fronts are dead even as are the rears .. It takes a bit as when you move one corner the others are affected. It took a few sessions to get them squared away.
If you go the corner weight route they may well end up each at a slightly different height to balance the car.

Thats about what I was doing but I was wondering if there is a more scientific method
and if not, should you have to realign the wheels after minor (i.e. less than 1/4 inch) adjustments?
