    PSS9 Max Height

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I want to get some coilovers to improve the ride and handling of my car, but really don't want to deal with the nuances of a lowered car. What's the tallest setting, or the minimum lowering height of PSS9's? Bilstein website kind of sucks and I went through about 4 pages of search results but still can't find the information. Can I get pretty close to stock height with PSS9's?

    You can probably get over stock height... At least with any coilovers I've dealt with in the past that was the case.

    Pss9's will allow for a stock ride height. They can be a bit bouncy though.

    Nope...
    Rides just a tad tighter than stock at the softess setting.
    But no bouncy action till you get the firmer settings (ala past half way).

    If you don't want to change ride height, why not just go with adjustable shocks for your stock springs?

    I'm talking about the freeway caddy bounce. The suspension takes an extra up and down on the dips in the freeway. It's kinda of annoying. On the street they are great. i have had mine set from 1 to 6 and it seemed a to give me the best combo with 2 front and 3 rear.
