[QUOTE="dubaroo, post: 271841, member: 13889"] After having a new interior fitted, the extra weight caused the tyres to rub if we hit any major dips & bumps in the road. A VW specialist fitted a set of coil overs which cured the rubbing problem, but it now sits with a nose up stance,which I don't like, It seems the weight of the van is sitting on the coilover springs instead of the torsion leaves. I want to get the ride level again, but, before I spend any more money, I need to know, is there a minimum clearance gap required between the tyre and body to work out shock length, or is it a case of different profile tyres required, or a bit of both? Cheers Kevin. [/QUOTE]
