if you go real low on full threaded coilovers you do need to go stiff cause it scrubs etc. You cant leave it soft damping cause you've lowered it that much using the bottom mount that you're now real low.
the lower you go, and more aggressive on wheels, the harder the susp has to be. it depends on the spring rates on those megans too. just put them in and see how you go. The rears really arent that hard to do, just leave the trim out when you install them for a few days while your setting it up. Also, the trim clips come off **** easy with a zip tie so you just have to pop off the two on the sides and stick your arm down there to get at the adjuster **** anyway once hte trims back in.
