If you switch to lowering spring depending on the miles on your stock springs switch to lowering spring....
You might give the heater hose mod a try 100,000 miles .
springs, they're not going to "settle" very much anyway.

Wheel Alignment: Before or After settle?
Is it better to do a wheel alignment before the springs settle or after? I heard someone say it was better to do it before, and some said the exact opposite. Not having any luck with the search button.

Extends quickly but does not settle....
But that is the general operation of a 90/10.
I have them in mine.
I found that he front springs will help it settle a little.
After that i video the car and started finding the little things .

The springs, springs are there for a reason, clipping them wont break it but they are there for a reason.

For those of you who wish you weren't limited to 3 or 4 brands of springs, where the spring rates aren't even labeled on the kits, and would like a little more control on WHAT you put into your ride...good news...
Just thought you'd all like to know.....

I don't think ....
Springs can take a few weeks to settle to there final ride height with it.
100 miles is not enough time.
I think I'll re-set the bolts and wait a couple weeks for the springs to settle.
Barley looks lowered.
