If running pss9 coilovers with stock wheels, do need to run wheel spacers in the front? What about stock 8.5" rear wheels in the front? I tried the search function already. Thanks in advance.

you might but. it all depends what your ride height is.

have you put any thought into buy camber and caster plates with new perches?

Have PSS9's installed on my 97 M3 coupe with factory staggered Contour wheels: Wheels didn't clear the suspension so I added a 10mm spacer to keep it safe. You might be able to get away with a 7mm spacer or whatever sizes they offer. In any case, yes you do need spacers, especially if you're using 8.5 width in the front.

The lower you go the more space you'll need.

I have the pss9s on my 99m3 and stock wheels and it rides better then ever . I have about 5/8 of an inch to go lower and I think its a good set up. Get rear mounts when you drop it.
