I recently just bought a used set of koni yellow's with ground control coilovers on them...I also got a set of top hats for all 4 of them from a friend.
My question is, i'm pretty much all the way down on the rears and I still have wheel gap. When I let it down off the jack it is just sitting on the bump stops. The car is a 89 civic sedan. I am not sure what the spring rates are, but I could possibly find out. They are on the thrid lowest setting on the actual strut. No suspension mods except the koni/gc/hats. Here are some pics...Any info helps, thanks.

 

BUMP.......................

 

what are the konis off of? If your sitting on the bumpstops with that much room left my guess is they are the wrong shocks for a ef. i know eg ones work as thats whats on my ef 4dr but i would imagine that da ones are too tall as the oem ones are taller than ef oem ones.

 

What is the question?

If it is about the bumpstop...some setups are bumpstop active, meaning the bumpstop is in contact with the damper at all times. The bumpstop in your picture is a multicellular jounce dampener and provides additional - progressive spring rate. The unfortunate side of these devices is that the spring rate 'steps' up as they are compressed. These fairly large steps in spring rate can be disconcerting on a track. They also over heat and turn funny colors when as a result...letting you know when to replace them as they become less resilient...harsher steps.

The wheel gap looks fine to me...fenders don't touch to top of wheels in most proer setups that begin life as commuter cars...race cars are different.

 

Ya they are off a DA. I didn't think they would be that much different, but I guess i was wrong. Oh well, ill just sell them and get EF specific ones. Thanks.
