So can you adjust them yourself or do you have to take it to a shop to adjust the height every time???

The car was on "Comfort" it gets lower on Sports 2. Given that they are 18's, the car sit pretty low. W/ 20's it'll be higher. And yes, I drive it like that right now. I'm taking it back on Saturday to raise it up though :P

Jimmy rideasone.com is my website, for my car crew "ONE" We "ride as one" :P One as a group, one with our cars. Oh snap! Ok so we only have like 3 members including myself haha.
