Coilovers are adjustable, so you can raise/lower your car as you like, correct? My concern is that during the winter/snowy season, having my Civic permanently lowered might not be a good idea. I'd like to be able to raise it back to stock height if there's a lot of snow on the ground. What do you guys think?

yep, that's the whole point of them. To adjust at will.

Yea, but if u plan to lower it more than 2" you will have to get it aligned everytime u adjust it or u will have to much camber.

Yea bro like he said...go lower than 2 and you get to have loads of fun with the camber. Also adjustable coilover are gonna take a bit longer to put on....got em on my car. You have to go around and make sure all or the same height opposed to throwing springs on with a predetermined height.

I will be getting skunk 2's just for that, to raise my car in the winter. right now i have skunk 2 springs, and in a couple weeks i plan on having the coilovers. If you live in any snowy areas, i think it is a must if you want to drive your car.

If you live in a snowy/salted area cover the threads on the adjustment collars with anti-seize or your rings will be frozen. Then no more adjusting ride height.

What type of coilovers are you planning on, True coilovers(shock/spring) or just coilover sleeves. True coilovers will be much quicker/easier to install comparing to sleeves, which I dont recommend.

You will need an alignment every time the ride height is changed. Even if only adjusting .5", its not just camber that is affected, toe is also.

Arent the sleeve type coilovers, even ground controls with Eibach springs a bumpy ride? If you drop it more than 2 inches, I believe aftermarket struts might be needed. It would only cost a little more to get true coilovers... :2cents:

You should upgrade the shocks/struts ANY TIME the car is lowered, even 1.0" unless true coilovers are used. Stock shocks aren't designed to control the new spring rates, and weren't meant to function @ a lower level.

Unlike stock suspension that is meant to "float" over the road, a true performance suspension will be firm & you will feel more. Now when you start lowering more than 2", a bouncy ride(no matter what your suspension choice) is the result of the crazy spring rates & minimal suspension travel.

It would only cost a little more to get true coilovers... :2cents:

werd, there are some pretty cheap true coilover systems out these days. Like the Tein basics, I've seen them go for $650 and for a few 100 more you can get their SS coilovers. There really is no reason to buy a sleeve type coilover anymore, just save up a little longer and get some real ones. Unless your desparate for a drop and have to have adjustablilty.
