jayzrb 1 Report post Posted January 29, 2014 I have a 87 with 45mm shocks. Would it be worth it if i change it to 51mm I have 51mm spare. Also is it straight fit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e30ftw 410 Report post Posted January 29, 2014 No. You need 51mm strut housings to fit 51mm struts. If you have 45mm ones you need to change the entire strut. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jayzrb 1 Report post Posted February 2, 2014 Lets say ive got the complete 51mm strut hosing plus shocks. Would it be a upgrade How would it affect handling and performance? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_ethrty-Andy_ 2136 Report post Posted February 3, 2014 upgrade yes, but not worth doing unless your current shocks are had it, or you want to install lowering springs anyways, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
