shorter shocks in the front?

[matsh]

on one of my e30 i have build a coilover system,to get it max slammed. but in the front the shock is to tall so i only have 10mm of travel before it is bottoming out. (still original shocks)
is there any other shocks that will fit inside the 316i strut that is a bit shorter so i can cut dovn the strut housing and get more travel.
still using original top mount, i think i can gain a litle there also buy using some other parts. but i still think i nead shorter shocks. is there any koni types that are shorter? any serial number on those so i can order the right ones?

thanks.

Ground control has them. you will probably need to upgrade to 51mm strut tubes from a 325.

I believe that there is a spacer you can get for the rear also. (to level the look)

the corrado front g60 front shocks they are for the 51mm type?
found that some guys are using the corrado shocks.

Corrado is 51mm, so they won't work in a 45mm strut housing.

You are really better off to find some 320 or 325 housings, and shorten them.
