Ohlins you can adjust ride height and preload independently and that is how it should be done. Most coil overs I would set about 2mm preload which works well for both street and track day use. Ride height I would set with some rake approx 10mm on a street car.

To match dampers to roll bars takes time and lot of track testing with suspension deflection and roll data logging. I loath slammed cars! It’s ridiculous and pointless.
