I have that much clearance between my coilover springs and my rim/tire... Is this enough?
I ordered 1/8 spacers just in case, and will loosen up the shock mount to try and get some clearance there as well if needed. I could go with an 8" spring, but don't want the ride too hard...
I've got just about that much with my combo and wheels. IMO if it isn't hitting from the get go, it wont since it is not a moving part. The strut does not move in relation to the wheel at all, so it will never change its clearance. I've seen it so close that it wears some text off the tire but thats it. Good Luck!
I think I am ok in the rear. I just coughed up a lot of jack on Koni quad shocks. Turned them around and have at least 1/2 inch from the tires and the quad has at least an inch clearance from the shock.
We'll see once I get it aligned and then test drive.
