  • Coil/Strut Spacers

    Wondering if anyone here with a 90 series has installed either (or both) coil and strut spacers?

    Already got an Ironman 2" lift all around and notice on their site they offer either a 10 or 15mm spacer for the front struts and either a 20 or 30mm spacer for the rear coils.
    Would there be any problems with fitting these to my car? I'd like to go as high as I can for now without having to go for custom suspension.

    Thanks

    I also have the 2in Ironman susp as well. Got 20mm spacers in the rear only to help when dragging the boat behind. Had no issues with the spacers coils different story(but all sorted). Reckon I should have gone 30mm tho.

      Excellent well I'll definately go the 30mm up back because my intentions are to make a steel rear bar up.

      Just wondering about the front and if it pushes things too far out or what not.

        After 2" OME kit has settled and new draws are fitted i might go for a 20mm rear spacer. Rear seems to sit down a bit now with draws fitted. Happy with the ride but dont like the ass down look that it is starting to adopt. Spacars are the logical fix I think?

          That's what I figured, unless you tow in which case a set of poly airbags would be the way to go

            Yep thats the same reason i chucked them! Looked like the car was always carring heavy load.
            Didnt make it completely level but looked a lot better. My draws and car is pretty much got day trip gear in it 24/7 . For those quick getaways!

              I have OME all round but even with using a full set of the same stuff, my rear was low. I fitted some 25mm spacers that sit inside the rear bump stop cones. This worked well. All level again. But I did try some Fat Bob spacers on the front. That was not good. Basically you replace the top three studs in the strut tower with much longer ones. Then a spacer goes outside the unit on top when you re mount it. This has a dramatic lift effect. The top wishbones were actually resting on the coils and the CV joints were at max. Without the OME 40mm lift from the spring, they work fine and push the wheels forward so that fitting 33" tyres is easier. Until I can get a op ball joint drop kit, I have had to remove them.
