Gaz Rear coilovers hitting tyre what size spacers you running?

[Nobby]

Hi chaps have got Gaz rear coilovers and i was running 185/60/14 tyres and a 5mm spacer and had no issues now ive gone to 195/50/15 Cesaros (6J) and the tyre is hitting the spring. Just wondered what size spacers other people were running as im going to have to put atleast another 2mm spacer in etc :confused:

i got/had this problem, i used a 3mm spacer as the 5mm one i tried was too much. i then messed about with lowering it to see how much i could go down (without spacer) and the spring moves away from the tyre the lower it went. result, im now slammed to the deck. lol. i got 195/45/16s btw. also had 195/50/15 r888s fitted and there alot worse as there a pure 195 unlike a road tyre.

ye it more on the N/S mate but its jacked up for drag racing, i suppose if i lower it, it will drop the angle? but i need a all round solution, is 8mm or so too much for the wheel bolts?

[brucer]

mines worse on the n/s too. lol. i imagine you would want longer bolts for 8mm, will your wheels miss the arch as they will be sticking out?

ive got speedlines in the rear of mine with 45 profile an no spacers and it dosent rub bud

Can you not slightly adjust the hole at the top where the shocker goes through the body, only needs a mm or two to make a big difference lower down?

Just a thought lol

possibly chris got to be similar to turreting? ive got a 8mm spacer on the ns now and its not catching so itl do for now
