Re: Ride height



Scott,

I missed you and Steadiric at the Blackhawk event...I was in the grey
90Q10V (yes, just a boring old 10V) with the plates "MR ICE 70".  Perhaps
next year when I participate instead of watch!  ;-)

Have you found that the roll centers change as the suspension travels?
Also, are you aware of suspension differences from the 80/90 series and the
4/5K series?  I am considering a set of H&R springs when new struts go in,
and wonder if they will change the height and roll centers.
