Title says it all, I have the Bilsteins already in place just wanted to add these coils to hopefully get that desired 3" lift to throw on some 285's!

OME 884 FRONT
OME 898 REAR- (I also have a 1.5 inch spacer currently in the back would that need to be taken out?)

I looked on the forum and every thread there is arguments on whether or not the Bilsteins needed to be set at 0.85 or at 0. Anyone running this build and have pics to show would be greatly appreciated.

I have asked multiple times if anyone has else has used the .85" setting with a front lift coil but have not gotten anyone to confirm either. I am on the verge of just trying it to find out. The alignment after would be key though.

As far as the rear goes, you would definitely want to remove the spacers to install the new coils.
 
If you're using a lift coil spring I'd leave the 5100's at the bottom perch. I just installed them with Wheelers springs and they came set at the bottom setting. If you want a little more maybe do a small spacer on top of the coilover top hat.

Thanks that is what I figured either way I guess I can hopefully ask whoever does my work test it out or see what works best.

That is true I guess I can look at adding a small spacer!

Either way I guess I should just go for it and find out myself.
