Hi to all...
Someone know if it's possible to fit a KW Var2 kit with the standard GSi wheels?
I see that there isn't too much space between the standard shock and the tyre... I need spacers?
Probably FK or Formel K have the same spring/shock dimensions...

Thanks!

i can only speak for my spax kit, but the standard sport wheels (due to camber and offset) hit on the shocks when over 60mm down, spacers would sort this if it happens on FKs i would think...

The KW has adjustable camber bolts, so i can maintain the right camber.
In any case i don't want to lower over 40mm, the road here are really bad...

never had it down this far with standard wheels but could put one on over the weekend and check it. either way i'm sure you will be able to sort it with spacers, think mine are 6mm but could get away with smaller ones so its not like you will have to put silly size spacers on. if that makes any sense?

Depend on what wheel (offset and width) and tyre you have now...
In any case, i don't want to go that lower... I've already destroyed 2 sump (one engine and one gearbox)... Not bad!
