Surely on cheap kits you have to have adjustable top mounts or camber bolts to be able to adjust them at all :boggle:

I had to use 5mm spacers on the front with my Coilovers.. They are for sale if anyone is interested :)

What mm and how much? inc postage

i have alovely set of spacers in my garage FOR SALE ONLY

What i thought, Unless you have long springs

if you take out the helper spring the spring and adjuster platform will be higher, so if your only down 60mm with helper spring out, the adjuster wont be near the tyre, so that would solve the problem too

Just to add have you guys removed the helper spring? I dont know how much they rub with and without. Or even where they rub.

I just know its a common thing on novas.

:thumbs:

Sorted the problem with 5mm spacers and longer bolts :)

thanks for the help

I needed 5mm spacers for my 2.0l brakes because i own alessios :(

Yer nice one :)

Well i havent fitted my GAZ yet but ive got speedlines to go on too, so im predicting from reading this thread im gonna need spacers :(

Do you need longer wheels bolts with even 3mm spacers?

I needed 3mm spacers with my coilovers and speedlines.

If you've recently put the coilovers on and new alloys I'd get tracking done (this solved my scrubbage on coilovers)
Need to do it anyway as you've lowered the car.

But if that fails then go for the 3mm spacers :thumbs:

So I need spacers or can I just try adjusting the camber? or both?

yea, the coilovers are a different shape. I used to have a spax system on my GSi, and the 14" GSi wheels rubbed without the 3mm spacers. The problem is the strut doesnt sit as deep as a fixed setup strut, so they always rub!

you will need spacers..

should i really need spacers running speedlines on corsa b??

my last corsa i ran 60mm springs only, and neva had a problem? didnt need spacers at all with the speedlines?
(perfect fit for vauxhalls?) :boggle:

with my coilovers being lowered 60mm... can i not just change the camber to set to the alloys?:boggle:

never seen are hurd of a problem with rubbing on speedlines...ever so am :o lost.....

help... are links please + must have been asked before am a newbie sorry inadvance ha :thumbs:

Got my speedies today after hours of driving and when I tried to fit the front wheel I had the old problem of them rubbing on the coilover spring? Someone says to try spacers but I don't know where to get them? :S help!!! :(

Will I need the camber set and tracking done?
