RaceLand Coilover Review - Page 50

will i need spacers with my stock wheels? I think they are 16x7. Not sure of the offset. Style 42's i believe

heres a pic of them incase anyone who has installed the coilovers has had these wheels

Dominic.G. · 05-17-2011, 12:34 AM

recently i took my car to the mechanics because there was a bunch of squeeking when i turned the wheels a lot and the mechanic said it was my struts. So the racelands come with parts that will replace the struts right?

so all i need to get are the adjustable endlinks and spacers?

Gnna replace ur squeaky struts. Endlinks, yes. Believe either racelands or the impala ones are fine. And spacers only depends on ur wheels.

I'm just really worried/confused on the length to get for the endlinks

///Mostarac · 05-17-2011, 01:13 AM

gtvento13 · 05-17-2011, 05:26 AM

///Mostarac · 05-17-2011, 10:01 AM

Ok I'll stop by kragens. How long are they compared to the stock ones?

honkifyoubonk · 05-18-2011, 05:40 PM

half, how far down did you go?

Dominic.G. · 05-19-2011, 11:05 AM

Ok so, I went to Kragens and.... I felt like an idiot talking to the guy because I had no idea what exact year, make and model you guys are telling me to get. So for the endlinks what exact ones are you all talking about?

///Mostarac · 05-19-2011, 12:47 PM

those guys arre idiots and wouldnt beleive you if you told em it was for your bimmer. the part number is in this thread somewhere, search it up

Smokeysama · 05-19-2011, 01:27 PM

So all in all for a set of Racelands you just need a set of endlinks and your good to go?

Jkim · 05-19-2011, 01:49 PM

Pretty much unless ur wheels require spacers to clear the coils

total cost i spent on my racelands will come out to be around $500 with everything + an alignment. am i satisfied? totally its exactly what i wanted. if your just looking to drop your DD and have some adjustabilty these are sufficient

gtvento13 · 05-19-2011, 03:11 PM

these are 7" in length which is about 4-5" shorter than oem endlinks. take the old ones of, put these on, done.

DURALAST $40 for the pair, lifetime waranty
