| Spacers for air suspension |
|
I have heard from a couple of sources that someone has developed spacers for air-suspended models of the D3...
Does anyone have any knowledge/information? A web site for more info?
being able to set the ride height permanently 1" higher, and gain extra clearance when off-road has a certain appeal...
of course, this would negate any warranty etc etc etc...
cheers,

I've got a extra inch lift on my D3 without using spacers, just fit bigger tyres like the Cooper STT's 275/65/18.
To look at the car you don't notic it unless you really look at it however you do notic it when you get in and out of it.

yeah u can still use access mode tho if you do go over a bump it does rub a little tho i tend not todrive it in access even with normal tyres on its abit uncomfortable.
I have however used access mode off rd with no rubbing at all to get under a very low tree.
