    16v shocks with widetrack conversion

    I'm planning a widetrack conversion for my valver and will need to replace my FK's as I've read they won't fit once the widetrack is fitted.

    Now I have some 16v shocks with -35mm springs from before I fitted the FK's, would they fit with the Williams bits ok or will I need willy shocks? and are the tyres likely to rub on the arches with the -35mm?

    I'm replacing lower arms, arb & driveshafts if that makes any difference.

    I think the bolt spacing on the dampers means that you end up running silly amounts of negative camber but I'm sure that someone will confirm or deny this who actually knows for sure! lol
