Air Lift Question - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So, I have about 1 to 1.5" left for the fronts. I want to lower it some more, but the air line gets in the way. if I take off the air line and turn it all the way down will I have any issues putting the air line in and have clearance issues because it looks like it hits the lower mount when I turn it up.

Also, I have my camber plates maxed out in the fronts, but may possibly near more camber to clear the wheels better from the struts. Would I need to slot the plates more or would the next step be front lower control arms?

I've never had so much trouble fitting wide wheels when I was on coilovers.... now I have to worry about bags having enough clearance, etc. lol.

Yes, to go lower in the front, take off the air line, then turn it all the way. I would not suggest putting any more camber by the front plates because the bags might rub the frame. Get lower control arms for the front. What size wheels are you trying to fit?
