Default Suspension question --> TIA
long story short, at around 15k miles i installed H&R/Bilstein combo. Now the car has seemed to settle way too much and is too low for daily driving on MI roads.

I still want it to be lower than stock, but higher than it is now.

Any suggestions?

TIA!

Default We designed a coil-over kit for that shock/spring combo which will take care of that.
