John,

I'm thinking about doing the same thing with my 16V. I believe that your setup will work with 2-bump in the front and 4-bump in the rear. Personally, I'll probably go with 1-bump in the front to get rid of all that damn fender gap!

As far as negative camber in the rear, I'm hoping that with 4-bump pads, the rear won't be lowered enough to create a big problem. If it does, then I'm going to buy adjustable arms from Delsing Motorsport (www.delsingmotorsport.com) for $275.

Hope that answers your questions!

Daniel

John,

Yes, I'm the one removing my self-leveling suspension. I haven't done it yet, because I'm still trying to find out if Koni makes shocks that will fit the rear of my car. They make some for the front, but because the car came with the self-leveling struts they don't list any shocks for the rear. I'm trying to find out if the normal 190E Konis will fit.

Can't wait to get it installed!

Daniel
