    Ohlins - Getting more rear height when adjusters are at max height

    Even with the rear adjusters set at maximum height the rear of my car (Convertible) still looks too low for my liking.

    Is there an easy way to gain more height?

    Do the RE articulating rear platforms give more height that screw type adjusters?

    Perhaps having some custom adjusters made is the easiest route.

    The rear springs have a rubber pad top and bottom. The top pad is 5mm thick but there is a 14.5mm thick pad available.
    Are there thicker lower pads available?

        taller spring pads. they have oe variations if your spring diameter can fit them.

          Doubt you have the droop travel to go higher, unless you've relocated the shocks downward....

            What's OP's current ride height? With a coupe, I'm at 13″.

              With maximum height set on your adjusters?

              How are you measuring that, wheel centre to bottom the wheel arch?

                Correct. I'm asking because I want to increase rear height too with Ohlins.
