      Also in the process I noticed I had the 9mm upper spring seat on the RF and the thinner on the LF, going to fix that when I do the struts

                  Throw some KYB stock replacements in there. It will ride like a dream.
                  you can get a 15mm spring pad that was used in e32 7 series that fits the e30, thats another 1/2".

                    I thought about that but it cost me $20 to make this spacers and at this point I don't want anymore in fear of the springs not staying in the perch

                              It looks like you have Bilstein touring shocks - what are your impressions?
