BC Racing ring position vs. ride height

Hello all,

I made a separate post since I think this is a different topic. I just got my BC Racing coilover set. Are there measurements of estimated ride height I can use to pre-set my coilovers or do I just have to install them and adjust and test until the height is right? For instance, what position should the spring perches be at if I want to achieve a 25 inch ride height all around?

And also, if I set my ride height and get an alignment, will I have to get another alignment in a month once things completely settle?

Thank you

Coilovers dont settle like traditional lowering springs.
for ride height trial and error.
no way to tell unless someone here took measurements of their BC and you could copy.

To all my friends: does anyone have their car lowered to 25.5 with BC racing coilovers that they can measure for me?

Just kidding, I'll just do adjust and measure until it's right.
