The ride height varies. Don't those Konis have two different height settings?

Not sure about tje ride height on the konis. I no they can b used with lowering springs or factory springs. When i talked to the guy at bmr he said with there lowering springs 1.25 drop the front would sit at 26”and the rear would b 26.75 well my front is already at 26”ish

Actually those lowering springs will only drop you roughly 1.25" from where you're currently at if you're at stock height. So that means there is no specific number set in stone. Every car will be a bit different
