Title: Raising Height of Car without Coil Overs, Can it be Done??
Post by: antnicuk on September 18, 2007, 09:54:40 AM
I have Koni Shocks with Racing Beat springs which is a really nice suspension set up but its a little to low.   Is there any way of raising the ride height slightly but retaining the set up that i have?

spring spacers. I have some in the front springs of mine (mainly because they came from a car which was running a 20b and therefore was front heavy)

Larger aspect ratio on your tyres (or bigger wheels!) but this will knock your mph guage out!

Or same weight springs (unless they\'re progressively wound) but longer? That\'ll up the ride hight.
