In that regards, even with the lower 6k/3k spring rates on the Tein SS, since you may end up preloading the springs more if you drop it more, that would cause the spring itself to be much stiffer in general?
Sorry to OP if this is threadjacking, but similar concepts on adjusting coilovers for comfort though =)

Yes with the tein ss series, the height adjustment is only by moving the spring up and down. With the teins, if you want to lower the car, you moved the rings down... therefore the springs is less compress aka less preload=softer ride.
With the megans/ksports. They have full adjustability by adjust the bottom ring. They adjust ride height using method #2 because #1 will only do so much.
