If they did you can just fit shorter coilover springs so you can then run them with the spring platform above the tyre rather than behind the tyre.

Depends on the make of coilovers. I got mine from Gaz and think most others have the same Internal diameter but I know Spax ones are different so others might be.

i had 4 avo coilovers on my nova and they were fine with my speedlines, i had 195/45/16 tyres. think there was a good 6 or 7mm clearence between the tyres and springs
