So, in my case - AC Schnitzer designs their springs to work with stock bumpstops therefore I will not be adjusting/changing mine.

For people with other aftermarket springs, could be a different story.
Actually that helps a ton, meaning we could utilize our stock bumpstops with our struts. That makes me happy

Thank you so much for the info! It was super helpful!

No problem. Going to be installing my rears this weekend hopefully. Just waiting on new hardware to arrive.

Seems like a pretty simple process from what I can tell. Probably will not be getting the car lined up again. Just had it done a few thousand miles ago when I installed the ACS springs.

Then on to fronts.
