Ollieh17 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Would it be okay to run standard shocks lowered on the front of a Glanza and D2 Coilovers on the back? It will be for 2-3 weeks tops. Having issues with the rear tyres rubbing because of the shagged shocks. Having the coilovers on will allow me to actually drive the car. Just can't afford front and rears until payday. Would i see any issues if i set them to a similar height to the shocks and springs. Will the differing spring rates pickle everything? Any advice would be great Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StuDoc 72 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 No it will be fine mate as long as its not to low as it could rub without a panhard rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Cool, hopefully picking up a panhard too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I did this and it made the the front end stupidly bouncy was horrid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I imagined it would be!! Front shocks are just f**cked so they're pretty limited how bouncy they can be haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ollieh17 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 well i think the driver side shocks are blown and the springs are shot which is why the drivers side sits lower so i feel everything... When i say limited to how bouncy they can be i meant bouncy from rebound and dampening... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
