This is a follow up to my above posts. The information I posted above about my stock wheel in relation to the adjuster collar was incorrect. I test fit the front wheel to verify if I could get enough clearance with shorter Eibach spring with the helper spring. Because of my ride height I am not able to get full clearance. The collar is above the sidewall of the tire, but right on the shoulder of the tire. The wheel is Apex SM-10 18x10 et25 with RE-71R in 275/35/18.
I know it seems like a little bit of a wasted effort, but that is mainly due to my ride height. Also, I feel that I was able to learn something and make a contribution to the information here. If you set the ride height a little lower than stock, say around ZCP height, there will likely be better clearance. I am between 16mm and 17mm lower than my stock saggy assed 90k mile suspension with flat hard rubber bushings.....so, I may be more like 20mm+ lower than stock.
Below I have posted photos without any spacers and with a 5mm spacer. I have signed up for autox the next two weekends and will be running the spacer.
....I know the lock nut on the adjustable end link needs tightened.
