Help a bit of a noob with "coilovers"
First off, can someone tell me if my understanding of what a coilover is, is correct: is a coilover basically a strut/shock and spring combined?
If so, do they require any special tools to install (eg.: spring compressor) or it is basically a matter of connecting them in the right places?
Are they meant for just racing or is it reasonable to use them in general and reliably for every day driving?
Thanks in advance

install isnt hard. usually they come assembled and its just a "bolt on job." most are fine for daily. depends on the spring rate tho. 6/8 are what im on right now. ive seen 10/12 and higher and im not so sure id want that stiff of a ride for bossier roads.
