Default adjust the coilovers

Can anyone tell me how to set the coilovers. I've just fitted a set of D2 adjustable coilovers on my ITR and i would like to lower it as much as i can. From where do i set the coilover, from the upper or the lower part? 10x

Pre load the springs ...... turn the top spindle up by about 10-15mm then lower the entire strut as low as u want with the lower spindles
