Coilovers, Spings and Won Tons
future tc owner...my dealer says my car is on the water and will be due beg of Nov. can't wait. So I have this free time to research mods and I have been learning a great deal in the forums.
At this point I have been reading a bit on the "coilovers vs springs" threads...and just as much on the "springs vs coilover" threads.
i used to live in the city and one justification for the high price of rent was "well if i want chinese food delivered at 2 in the morning i can have it." but eventually i moved into the suburbs because well...how often did i really need won tons in the early am?
here's the reason for the digression...
i understand that part of the argument for coilovers is the ability to adjust. my question is this for those who prefer them...how often do you really adjust them? is it simpy for the show-goers who want tremendous drop on the weekends..is is once a season to increase height for snow, etc? and if you are doing this often, are you changing camber or getting alignments just as often?
Thanks for the education.

most people (say 95%) set them to 1 setting and leave as is.
on the other hand. people who mtn drive and track usually mess aroudn with the settings more often...
well all of ^^ applies to me
