New ride height...

Soooooo...

When looking into replacement struts, do I need to compensate for the lowering of the chassis? It seems like you would need to adjust for the travel...

The less travel you have from rest to bottomed out, the stiffer the shock valving needs to be. That helps slow the compression motion down before it bottoms.

Similarly, if you have a higher spring rate than stock, the springs really try to push back (think pogo stick), so increased rebound damping is necessary to compensate for that.

It seems like it is sitting a bit higher than it should.....

Those Riken rims look fantastic on your car ZIII.

Thanks…. I keep toying with the idea of going with 16” Rewinds in gunmetal but I can’t seem to be able to do it.
