VWRacing-KW-V3 Suspension....

<< < (17/19) > >>

....

I had my suspension raised a small fraction yesterday to cure wheel arch rubbing (only when driving very hard) due to the change in offset between my ET51 Monza and ET48 OZ wheels. That's the beauty of adjustable coilovers.

This is a much more satisfactory way of dealing with rubbing than removing the wheel arch screws which can result in things working loose.

Trouble is that I find I'm now more inclined to push on harder through roundabouts and tight bends. I love Milton Keynes - So many roundabouts!

RedRobin are you KW's set to full height? I've got mine on max and still is very low (it rubs on roundabouts)

....When you say "full height" and "max" do you mean set to raise the car as high as possible or as low as possible?

It's not advisable to set adjustable coilovers to their maximum lowering. Mine are not at their maximum lowering and never have been.

drsilviuro:
I mean that the height adjustment on the fronts is all the way up (spring is compressed)

....Again, never adjust all the way up (or down).
