Empi 8's
Has anyone fitted Empi 8's to a super bug and had the ball joint studs fouling on the inner rim when doing tight turns i.e. car park.
If so, will a camber adjustment fix it or is it going to be more complex?

how low have you dropped it. i found that any more than 30mm in a drop and you had to trim the bolts to stop them from hitting the inner rim.

It's not that low at all yet. Planning to fit adjustable struts soon to make it lower. At the moment I think it's had a coil or 2 cut out of it. Any
experience with them? Good or Bad?

The struts I mean; not the coils.

That is your problem
Get either some adjustable struts or some struts with lowered cups

I thought that may be the case. I've already got the struts, just chasing down some standard springs to fit them with.
