I have already started looking at coilover alternatives! The bilstein pss10 with electronic ride height is a bit on the pricey side!
Then I suspect you would be looking at some REAL bumpy ride...

Listen to this "old" man's advice, I really think you need some slightly thinner spacers, that's all, I had 17mm spacers on the rear set on my old 18" before, I also had some rubbing too... slow cruiser? my , you need to drive quite fast to get them tyres rubbed man!

...I thought your shocks are already the "hard on" bilstein! How much harder you want to get from your shocks!?!

Yeah I am running 12mm right now.... im thinking going down to 10mm or a little less.....

They rub if i drive at over 70km/h and go over dips in the roads etc.... and also when the car is full of people.

My shocks are the hard bilstein and I dont want to go harder.... sigh! i will go down n see AK but I just want to get it sorted.....
