I'm pretty sure that the only strut or shock that you can adjust height with is Koni. Unless you meant dampening, which there are a bunch, every company that makes struts or shocks(they're not the same) has at least one model that's adjustable.

The Illuminas have adjustable dampering, not height. Koni Yellows are the ones where they have a lower perch where you set the spring on.

dont want to go coilovers, spring strut combo is better ride quality. goin with ground control springs, and koni sport struts.

I love the ride of good springs but they dont give me the drop i want. I used to have springs but I never was satisfied with my drops so i went to coilovers.Koni yellows are quite expensive too, you can get a decent full coilover set for around that price range already too if youre just going to be street driving. Also with the konis, youre not ever going to be able to get back up to stock height without putting your stock suspension back on. As i remember they only have 3 perch settings and theyre bascically, low, lower, and even lower. I remember they had a 5 perch version too but i think they were discountinued a while back.

Thats going to be a horrible ride. Some GC springs have really high rates that will kill your kidneys, make sure your health insurance covers em.

If you dont want to slam but you still want to go low, I suggest a HnR, Progress, RS*R + Koni yellow combo. HnR will bring you the lowest, closely followed by RS*R.
Yeah those..doesn't give you must adjustment though
Its a good amount, theres not much play when it comes to the spring seat. It lowered me about 1" more in the front, and .75" lower in the back.
