GC on KYB's
Alright so I read suspension thread, also the threads that Shawn B provided
My question is if I put a GC "coil-over conversion kit" on my KYB's will it rub if I have some wheels with an offset lower than 30, I'm probably not going to lower the back all that much probably raise it a tiny bit.
Also I won't just be adding the GC coils, I'll be adding Bump stops and sways bars all around with my stilen FTSB

If I seem like I don't know much or I don't know the meanings of some words it's because I'm new to the suspension thing thanks

The highest spring rate is like 1400lbs. I hope you have a good dentist.

Might as well just put a solid rod in there and save some money if you use spring rates like that...tons of tire clearance that way too.

seriously are you worried about rubbing on the strut or the wheel well?

GR2's are stock replacement struts, and are not a good choice for high rate springs, or a drop.

The CSK/GC set-up is not in the same price range as the Megans. It is far more expensive.
