Raising Skunk 2s

I am thinking about getting koni yellows with skunk 2 adjustable springs. First of all, is this a good choice? Second of all, in the winter, if I want, would I be able to easily raise my car or is it harder than I think it is? Do any of you with adjustable springs change heights a lot?

Just get the Tein SS you spend the same amount with good sleeves and shocks.

I have skunk 2 coils and i like em, but i have to buy new Koni's, it all depends on what you get the Tein SS for, because i got my coils for 100 (CND) so i don't mind paying a couple hundred for the Koni's, but i think you have to make some adjustments to fit the Koni's in the coil, the best combonation is to get Ground controls and Koni's or just get Tein SS which will probably give you the best ride. But if you don't have the money just drop it on the stock springs and wait till you can't stand it anymore and then buy the new shocks!!

I have Ground Control's and Koni Yellows....You need to buy two adaptor pieces from Ground-Control for 10 bux each to make them fit. The people having trouble with koni's and ground control's did not buy the adaptor which casue them to bend the perch causing shock failure.
