      Nordschleife, there's only two barriers to worry about - the ones on the left and the ones on the right .

              I reckon the hole location for the pinch bolt is elongated to much!! Look how the shock and bracket stick out from the base of the hub carrier!!

                  ? wtf?
                  They sit so much lower than previous ones, as you can see!
                  Perhaps as they kept bending, they were modified to sit deeper in the carrier, which is ok....until the wheels rub, and the alignment is off!

                    • It's not how deep, it's that if they are both KONI, why are they different, why have they been changed?

                        That is what I am trying to get to the bottom of . I "think" they have been changed to seat better so they don't bend. However, I am awaiting confirmation of that .

                            maybe the bodies are slightly longer to make up for it? we will have to wait for mike to find out

                            • ok been out at the car today, took out the bolt that holds the shock on the front hub dropped the koni down to where it rests on the top of the hub then redrilled out the hole again done this on both front koni's after fitted wheels back on took it for we spin came back had another look, looking at the top of the p.side front tyre, the top of the tyre run's level to the top edge of the spring cup.. on the d.side looking at the top of the tyre, the top of the tyre runs level to the bottom of the spring cup

                              but the bottom of the p.side koni sticks down more thn the drivers side koni, this is bound to affect the handling of the car? think i might end up putting on my gas coilovers they couldn't be as bad as theses koni's at the minute, hugh
