    As for rubbing, I'm going to guess it depends on offset.

    Just bought these, well paid for but should be here soon. I'm going to be getting revalved bilstein sports with akg rear shock mounts. I'm running 225/50/15, for those with this size tire would I have to worry about rubbing fenders if I keep spring pads?

    I cant argue that.....but if some1 thinks these are truly streetable, then they are comfy sleeping on plywood.


    These are just livable on the street...........at the most. But thats only my .02!

    in theory, shocks control the springs.......JS's are very very hi rates...the car will porpoise around like a slammed Honda w/ really bad valving...


    its not only needing shocks for a lowered ride ht...ITS ALOT MORE

    for you fellas running js's on the streets....i wouldnt bother revalving the billies unless you have issues.

    but for real track work..which these were designed... a revalve is in order!

    these were some serious shits in JS BMWCCA racing...and the e30M3s running them were outright quick.

    Personally I wouldn't bother or you'll be doing the labor twice sooner or later...these are much stiffer than h&r race springs and off the shelf inserts were already a wash with 550/650rear rates in my experience.

    No experience with these not sure if they run slightly wide. Ask Mystikal I think he has a data base or something.

    I just got some 452 for DD on my E36 and they seem to run skinner than the Summotomo's I had before.
