buddy club and megan coilovers

I have seen pics of how low Megan coilover can go but can't find any of a ge with buddy clubs all the way down its the only factor that is holding me back from pulling the trigger on either set

Yea I like his stance a lot I'm sure the same can be accomplished if you took out your perches where are the adj knobs on the Megan? I know buddy clubs are down low up front and on top in rear how long have u had Megans on your car for ? Quality and ride alright ?

Yea well I was just trying to help out a fellow member ! When it comes to the dampening adjustment , they are on top of the shocks/struts. And u put a knob on it ! They ride great and haven't gave me any problems at all ! I had them on for a couple of months ! Can't really remember ! Well good luck with ur decision and purchase

Yes, these coilovers have a locking collars so I can independantly raising and lower the base of the coilover which is independant from from the spring adjustment.

Thats crazy cuz with the Buddy Club, in the front I have a whole inch left to drop but im already too low lol.

If you're refering to the back springs, I did take off one nut (no pun intended) and dropped it all the way. I can show you a picture later if you would like.
