If you are going to be lowering the car I think its a must to shorten the strut also and fit shorted shocks.
I left mine standard height and with the coilovers, and helper/keeper springs, it still at fulldrop is 'just' uncaptive. And if you've seen pics of my car it isn't that low.
I'll be hoping to take 40 - 60mm out of my strut housing and then find a suitable insert to use.
Then the springs should be nice & captive and the compression/droop ratio should be better. At the moment it would be way off.
Cheers
Joel
