Am I supposed to cut the rear bump stops down...

[JR'Z 525]

when installing Bilstein Sport struts and lowering springs (Bav Auto)? If so how much? I searched the archives to no avail.
I'm still trying to finalize this suff before I install it. Clear weekends are rare around here....
Thanks :D

i throw them away with bilsteins

The directions for the rears show them being used. I thought I had seen posts in the past where the bump stops were being shortened for use on the rears??

it didn't see em in the dirrections for my rear bilsteins, i've bottomed it out a couple times during some, ahem, spirted driving and it's not too hard, i think the bilsteins have springs for just such a occaision
