Top Mounts for Coilovers

[amggsi]

What is the best top mounts to use on my FK Coilovers?

I won't be doing any tracking or anything like that, I just bought the coilovers for the look of them really, and then I found out my standard top mounts aren't suitable!!!lol

Ive got these on mine, and i cant see you getting them cheeper!

[amggsi]

Are yours the fixed or adjustable ones, I really haven't a clue what I'm looking for!!!

[BIGS]

Ive got adjustable one, but that because im going wide track

[amggsi]

From looking, the fixed ones aren't actually "fixed" though, or am I totally off?

They seem to have 3 settings which would probably do me for what I'm looking - keeping the wheels straight!!!

[BIGS]

They should be ok, id phone them and see what they say. but if you got the adjustable ones i could show you where to mount them anyway as it would be the same as mine.

I take it those prices are each BIGS?

I use the Rally Design ones - http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=907_909&products_id=7380

Bit more expensive tho but a great product. It will come with 2 collars each mount (1 top, 1 bottom). You will need to drill these out to the diameter of your damper piston.

Can I ask, why aren't your standard mounts suitable? Is it in reference to the massive camber you now have from running low?

[BIGS]

Yea thats each, i should of said

I'm not running that low really, but I've been told I will need them otherwise the wheels will hit off the shock because of camber??

I'd just try your standard ones 1st mate. I ran my avo's on standard mounts for ages.

I ran standard ones with my old Spax coilovers and they were always fine. I'm doing the same with the Gaz one I've just fitted to my new Nova but have got a fair bit of camber this time for some reason. Looking to invest in some eccentric ones.

Ive used avos with standard mounts too, there fine. But you can drop them lower with alloy top mounts.
