Exclamation Lowering an X Type

Has anyone lowered their X Type with adjustable coilovers?? I've seen people that have used air ride suspension instead but apart from that being expensive I don't feel like it's that reliable. Has anyone lowered their car? This topic seems to be more for younger people I believe, I kinda want to lower my car I love how stanced BMW & Audi's look. I want to get some adjustable coilovers so I can lower my x type in the summer and then adjust them for winter/snow use, any idea what coilover kit would fit????

The only coilovers offered are from kw and only the front are adjustable, the rear is just a lowering spring But I've heard it is lower in the rear than h&r or eibachs.

Justink on here did some radical stuff to the rear of his suspension in order to allow for rear adjustability. Gets pricey modding these cars man.

I'm on H&R springs and Bilstein HD struts and shocks. Nice combination I think, but I'll go with coilovers and copy the rear of justink on the turbo x when the motor is done.
