    Can anyone confirm max ride height with Ohlins RT and OEM top mounts? Is 14" in front achievable?

      Are you using their stock yellow 8" springs?

      Those are 400 and 8", I was able to get to ~13.3 with 375 and 7", so I think you can easily get to over 14 with the yellows. You can also get a bit higher is needed if you preload the springs a bit more.

      You having tire rub issues, is that why you want to run 14"?

        No tire rub concern, only looking to maintain a minimum of 14” in front and 13.75” in rear.

        Looking for:

        -Ohlins quality damping.
        -Moderate lowering from OEM (max 0.5”)
        -Moderate spring rate increase from OEM (max 1.5x)
        -Retain OEM top mounts

        If Ohlins RT can reach hight requirement, the only downside is spring rates nearly 3x oem...
