What's it catching on? Heard of coilovers catching the inner arch before. I've got Leda coilovers on the front, with std Koni on the rear. Had planned on coilovers all round, just never got round to it...

If it is just catching the inner arch it's a simple fix. I think I spaced the bottom of the coilover out slightly but otherwise just get the hammer out.

If it's only catching that little could you not just run a 2-3mm spacer?

No mate that's dodgy if you see my car you'll understand I do things properly lol spacers and speed don't go no point in risking it for a few quid lol
