Nex coil overs
These are on the car I jus bought. Don't know much about them, right now the car is lowered can ten car be brought back up to factory ride height? The way there sitting not the tires ace a ton of chamber and it's wearing the shizz out of the tires.
If anyone can help that would be great.

Get rid of them and pick up some stock suspension in the classifieds. Those are garbage.

Maybe. Then again, someone was dumb enough to put them on your car.

Picture of car currently? You can go up some to get the suspension geometry back in check. Don't have to go monster truck for winter. I drove up in your area with my Evo on Swifts and front aero without issue...well other than snowplowing the roads for the road crews.

Running a coilover designed (poorly) to slam the car as high as possible is not always a good thing. I would try to sell them and find some used stock stuff or find someone to trade. Stock will be much nicer anyway.

Roger that, but that may still be too high for the coilovers. I don't trust those crappy lower mounts.
