I have the front adjusted to it�s highest setting (adjusted all the way at the the bottom of the threaded tube), yet it�s too low.

Ended up tweaking the ride height several times to get the front tire clearance (for track use) and stance to my liking.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Just finished installing the H&R RSS Clubsport coilovers on my �99 C2. I have the front adjusted to it�s highest setting (adjusted all the way at the the bottom of the threaded tube), yet it�s too low. Anyone ever add coil spacer or something similar? Rear has plenty of adjustment up/down but front is maxed at highest it can go. Seems like H&R could have done a better job at sizing.
The bracket that the pinch bolt goes through could be cut off and welded further down but I�d be concerned about heat from welding messing up strut inside.
Taking in for alignment to Porsche racing shop this week so maybe they will have suggestions.
i do track the car 6+ times a year and drive it a couple of times a week to work. Not sure I can even get in at work as speed bump and high angle of entrance may scrape too much as it is
Feels great on the street so far.
Thanks,

To be at the highest setting, you'd need to be at the top of the threaded tube, not the bottom. It sounds like you have it in the lowest possible setting.
Thanks! I still hate geometry 30+ years later... don�t know why I can�t wrap my head around that. I�m stuck on thinking if I compress spring more, it goes lower. I�ll adjust it back up and think about it while I�m doing it and hopefully I�ll see my error in thinking.
thanks again.

It can be confusing. For the purposes of height adjustment on your coil overs, consider the spring a fixed length. If the spring collar goes up, it raises the ride height. If the spring collar goes down, it lowers your ride height. I suppose if you were to add or remove a bunch of weight, it could vary the length a tiny little bit, but I doubt it would be enough to notice (especially with those spring rates on the club sport setup!).
I have the same coilovers as you do. Ended up tweaking the ride height several times to get the front tire clearance (for track use) and stance to my liking. Plan on multiple adjustments to get it just right. I am at about 75% track usage with the car and am very happy with the performance on a variety of tracks. Enjoy!
