Megan coilovers are not the best thing if he wants it raised and a softer ride. The spring rates on coilovers are higher then lowering springs. The car will be raised but is going to ride rougher.
Set the preload to your liking. You will probably have to put them on the car and see how it rides and then adjust accordingly. The front two should match each other and the rear two should match each other on preload. You can set them so they are all the same also.

With Koni shocks they must be springs.
If adjustable could be these
