Hook spanner for coil over adjustment
 
I have a newer SPF with the Bilstein shocks. I would like to adjust the ride height. I measured the nuts, and they appear to be between the common 75mm and 80mm hook spanner sized. Which size do I need, or do I have to buy the wrench that the SPF dealers sell?

PS - I know the hinge type hook spanner will work, but I really don't like them and would rather have the non-hinged type.

I think this is what you need:

You will be changing the geometry of your suspension once you change the ride height. You should get the alignment check after changing the ride height.
I have never used one of those wrenches. I like the using the good vocabulary while laying on the cold cement.

Ztarum,
You don't have to have the special wrench. I used a punch from my punch set. You could also use a drill bit, but I would use a glove if I did that.
