I just picked up some Bilstein PSS's from tirerack and I have a few questions.

What is the drop range for these coilovers?

I dont see the wrenches to adjust them in the box...they were shown in the picture and I cannot find an exact listing of parts on the site. Whats up with that?

Do these coilovers fit AP2s properly? I noticed they are labelled AP1.

Why is one of my coilover springs RED and all the others BLUE?

I did a search and didnt find anything.

Thanks,

Vinnie

 

Vinnie- Contact Jim the sponser for Tire Rack here at S2KI in the morning.
Nothing sounds right about your order. I would be interested in the explaination.

 

yeah, doesnt sound right to me either. There may have been a mix up. They will take care of you though.

Yeah I will call him. I have confidence in Jim's customer service. I will keep you posted.

 

wow...sounds very strange.

i just got my pss9 and love them

 

He is not in the office today, but I posted something up in the wheels forum. Hopefully he will reply or I will have to call him tomorrow.

 

Is it the PSS or the PSS9?
I believe PSS is not height adjustable.
But one spring being a different color is not right.

Ignore my post above.
Heights are adjustable. Stupid me..
Sorry for the ignorant post.

You should get a set of wrenches in the box. There are two. One is slightly bigger than the other. The color of the springs really does not matter. The spring rates on the other hand need to be the same. Now if it is the little helper springs, then don't worry about it. If it is the larger springs, look up the numbers on the springs and check the rates. To get a quicker anwser from the horse's mount, call Billstien in CA. Their tech support was great when I needed a replacement part.

 

They are home right now, but I do remember the spring in question having a different number printed on it. I believe it was the front left main spring that was red.

Also no wrenches from what I could see. I did not want to unseal the coilovers themselves just incase Jim needed them to stay sealed.
