OEM or True "quest for low"

I cant get a straight answers even after reading about 500 threads. Some say OEM setup some say TRUE setup...Hell some coilovers can go either way?


What is the best setup for going the lowest on coilovers?


TRUE OR OEM setup?

If you're a hard parker, just take out the springs and dampers. Can't get any lower than that.

The mechanical advantage goes to the OEM setup with the spring points at the subframe rather than the upper body. That said this is a he said she said glass half full glass half empty everyone's mechanics brother told them best subject. I would go with the setup you like best for your needs and desires. Research, buy once, be happy and never look back.
