using spring compressors to lower suspension?

[Ian]

if he bought coilovers, what would htat have to do with the compressed springs?



take the compressors off RIGHT AWAY. Doing that will shorten the stroke of the shocks, as well as create unnecessary wear on them. There's no telling what happened to the shocks while being compressed like this and actually driven. Best bet is to take them off and then drive. If it's messed up, get the shocks/springs replaced. Best case scenario, it's fine and you dont have to replace anything.
