Will these fit my 182

[Clio_romford]

Looking to buy some bilstein coilovers but the seller has lost the rear adjusters
He has a set from another set of coilovers but they have seized
Will these fit

Also noticed that the bilstein doesn’t go that low at the rear, is this all down to the adjusters or the springs and shocks
Many thanks

i dont know if they will fit, best bet is to call a b14 distributor and ask them.

The ride height is in the springs even if you ran no adjusters youd still be monster truckin, i believe they drop around 40mm max you could get a custom spring made up to go lower but for it to be optimal you'd need the same spring rates as the b14 spring because the shock will be valved for it
but if you want to go alot lower i would recommend a different coilover

Thanks for the advice

I'll be totally honest, you probably won' need the adjuster in on the bilsteins. They always seem to sit too high with them in.

Good advice. I guess there’s no way to make bilstein sit lower then? as the shocks and springs determin the height?

Springs do yeah

Cut the springs!!

That's a joke! Just run them without the adjusters in. I run the b14 kit with no adjusters. It sat too high with them in. Saying that, I'm also on 15s.
