When you use the term coil over, are you referring to factory strut with spring? The ride height on your car now is approximately the same as if you bought H&R springs. I have two '94XR2s myself and I have two '91XR2s that I've installed H&Rs on. The front ends are virtually the same height on all four cars. Gus.
