But how often do you really change the ride height?? | |

if you want to go regularly from 30 to 40 mm and change often then you need the hydraulics for the easy option. | |

coilovers for performance, hydraulics for looks. personally If you only want to go 30-40mm get some normal springs n shocks it'll save you a whole load of cash. When service time comes carry some blocks of wood with you and drive onto them. coilovers lower 70 -100mm usually, hyldralics lower well how low do you want to go> | |

Coilovers are a lot cheaper. But Coilovers are also best for handling. Hydraulics are crap for ride quality. Only difference other than that is that hydraulics can be adjusted whilst you are driving, but coilovers have to be adjusted with the car jacked up etc. | |
