Thx!
If you are going that low you i don't think a more track oriented coilover like the Clubsport will benefit you. There is a certain point when it just throws off the geometry of the suspension. Even if the coil can go that low it wont perform as well as if it was lowered 1.2". You are taking away from the full stroke of the shock and not letting it perform at its best. Some suspension guys can probably chime in on this. I don't know if the V3 you have can go that low but if thats all you are worried about then i would not get the CS.
