I strongly agree with Klaus about the ride height test.

Not long after we got our '96 855R with Nimovats, I noticed different space between the rear tires and the fenders if the car sat for a few days.

If I took it for a ride, the clearances evened up.

I drove that car for 11 years and never had problems with the shocks.

The most severe test was when I picked up a B16 engine and transmission - the car dropped at least 3 inches when loaded.

My buddy looked at me - I told him to wait a mile or so - we stopped at a gas station and the car was back up.
