Default Ride height and alignment specs... Please help :)

Hi all,

Let me first of all say that I come from the vw and audi "slammed" scene...

I have a 2000 carrera c2 convertible that I have h&r coilovers on. When I first got them I went low, yet now the roads here in dc area are getting worse with everyday and I want to readjust and realign. I wanted to swap out the coils for some shocks and lowering springs, yet no one seems to be interested here on the forum, and I dont have the $ to dump right now.

So question is, what ride height (from ground to top of fender) and what if any specific alignment numbers would you guys suggest for daily (sometimes spirited ) commuting and driving.

Please let me know

Thanks!
Paul

The RoW M030 suspension ride height is perfect for our NE Ohio roads. It's less than a 1 inch drop but really transfers the car. There was a used setup going for about $500 recently with sway bars.
