And i'd also like to know if they can go up to stock height or close to it, i too need good ground clearance for winters.

I use to have an Audi A6 twin turbo on coil-overs. I found was that dialing them back up to stock height was a huge pain in the **** while on the car. I had to take them off to clean up the threads and be actually ABLE to raise up the perch. The threads get all messed up. Just a thought worth considering if you're thinking of walking down this road.

Here are some quick pictures I took today. Forgive me the car is a little bit dirty I'll take some more as soon as the rain stops.
First, let me say thank you to MotoGreg for helping me fix the install on the coilovers. He's a very nice guy who knows a lot about cars in general, very accomodating and a standout person. Thank you again Greg!
Now, on to the pictures:
Before:
After:
As for the ride, Greg test drove it after the install so I'm gonna have him do majority of the talking here. In my opinion he is an authority when it comes to suspension and he is not bias when giving out reviews.
All I can say is that this coilovers rides better than stock and way way better than lowering springs. I'm on runflats and still, I feel the improvement over stock. Not too bouncy not too soft, right now it is set midway between soft and stiff but I'm trying out every setting until i find what's suitable for street and little bit aggressive driving.
For the price, I think this coilover is a good buy... we'll see!

Interesting.. the only thing I've seen about steering wheel vibration is from M7 website... I haven't seen anything yet on tranny issues. The folks that have installed the lift on their countryman's on this board haven't complained about any of those issues.. unless I just of missed it..
