    Did you have any issues getting the Rear Control Arm Bolt Hole lined up with Knuckle? The fronts were quick and easy but the rear installation is kicking my ass. I can't get the outer bolt hole (not the one for the Shock) to even come close to lining up. When I jack up the arm it gets hung up on the knuckle and hits the shock. There seems to be a 'twist' in the whole assembly which is causing the hole not to line up. I'm scratching the crap out of the new Bilstein B8's.

    I have a 2012 3.8 with the brembos on it, im assuming those rims are 18s but have you heard of rubbing or clearance issues with 19s and big brakes? springs vs coilovers im not sure which makes more sense right now

  • @acauto7886

    @acauto7886

    4 жыл бұрын

    Hey, my wheels are actually 19s. And yes I have had heard of issues with wheels hitting the brakes with genesis coupes with brembos. To fix this issue you just got to get a wheel with a less aggressive offset. I dont have to worry about that because i dont have the brembo brakes on my genesis. My rear wheels have a +22 offset and my fronts are a +30. Springs vs coils is not going to make a difference with hitting your brakes. But it depeneds on what you want. Springs are a cheap way to lower your car that give you a decent ride. Where coils gives you the opportunity to go lower or higher depending on your liking along with a nicer ride but will cost you more than double the price of springs.
