duno blud wat u fink?

Raise it more... but half way sounds about right. Mines 85mm from bottom of the thread up.

If not, you might have fitted them wrong. Did you put the rubber mount from the origional suspension ontop of the coilover before you fitted them?

First of all, start typing in proper English or all you'll get is piss taking on here.

Secondly, it's probably the bumper brackets where they're bolted to the wing, they need bent up/trimmed to stop it.

What size wheels do you have on the car?(at a guess they are not standard?)

They are either fitted incorrectly or you need to raise the ride height

 

[steve_182]

i hav spaced them yes. myn iz 65mm off tha bottom ye i did put them on.

 

[Glenny22]

Too low mine was on that and scraping just raise it to 85mm and see if that does the trick. Put the driver side 5-7mm higher.

I'll say it again.

 

[Glenny22]

It hardly alters the front ride height, it will probably go up like 1cm if that.

 

[steve_182]

ok will take them two 85mm see if that duz it thanks

 

[Glenny22]

I'll say it again.

Or try what JCC is saying if you want it kept low.

As above, sort that out, and the problem should go away.
