BC Racing Coilovers Max height for later winter set up

Ok, so I've been considering gettin BC Racing coilovers for some time but one of the thing that is throwing me off is the spring lengths and max ride height. I daily drive my car (coupe) and will have to raise it back to stock height for the winter, but I'm hearing the 210 springs causes the rear to sag when both front and rear are at max height. Is this true? I also know BC provide a 230 spring which is a bit longer to prevent this, but I hear the drop with that spring isn't that great. I do not want to have to remove any collars to get the car lower.

I'm not looking for a rediculous drop, jus something good enough to where i can close the gap and sllliiiiightly tuck tire jus a tad bit. As well as maintaining ride quality and gaining a bit of performance. My only other option I am considering is Stance LX+ which I know have a larger drop range. Which would u guys suggest I go with given this situation? Does anyone know anything about Stance LX+ being able to be lifted back to exact factory ride height

Sorry for thread jacking but i'm considering the BC coilovers as well. Looking for a slight tuck but I was wondering if a front camber kit is required. A vendor on the forum told me that a front camber kit isn't required but I'm not trying to blow thru my tires.

You are looking for solution for non existing problem. My car rides less than 6 inches from the ground all year around and that is in Toronto.
Are you gonna drive in 8 inch deep snow? Really doubt that....and if you do traction will be much bigger issue than ground clearance.
