    :arrow:Corrado G60 struts for coil conversion question

    Has anyone here ever used corrado g60 struts for a coil over conversion? Did you have any problems? I hear that the diameter of them are 6mm smaller is this true and what did you do to fit them?

    I have, no problems at all. Make sure you shorten the strut tube enough to keep the insert tight in the cavity otherwise it will knock around during suspension movement

      Have them in my car right now. No problems at all, I had to shorten the strut housing 2 inches though.

            Interested in this answer, since they're reported to be smaller and need some sort of spacer/wrap.

            Also, has anyone ever gotten info from Koni on valving to compare g60 to ix?
