Default Bilstein pss-9 coilover adjustments

I just got some pss9 Bilstein coilovers and they are installed and waiting to make sure they don't settle more before I adjust all the way to where I want them.

I was wondering when they are on the car is the adjustment ratio from how many threads you screw and that distance the same as how far the drop would be. Meaning if I want to be an inch lower can I measure an inch of screws on the coilovers and will that equal an inch with the wheels on?

Any tips for quick fine tuning with the wheels on would be appreciated.

Once the springs are settled, in my experience, that is correct. Btw, where did you get yours from?

Correct. While it's not 100% exact, if you want a 1" drop, 1" worth of threads will do it.

Thanks we will See how it goes. I got them from a guy locally who is parting out. They are impressive so far. My wife really likes the soft setting and I can dial it to her liking when we go out.
