I bought them from Option Auto Salon.

-as for the bump stop, i think my mechanic cut anywhere between 3/4 to 1/2 off..i was there when he did the install but did not pay much attention when he was cutting them. I beleive the springs come with instructions on cutting the bump stops.

i know this is yrs later but what are bump stops?

A bump stop prevents the shock from bottoming out when compressed. Without that cushion, the shock would get damaged when going over bumps, sudden change in road elevation at moderate to high speed.

hey guys, I was looking to buy Ruffino 20' rims. The specs are 20x9(+38) in the front and 20x10.5(+42) in the back. I was wondering if anyone knew if i would need fender work or any mods if i were to install the Road Magnets and then put these rims on. Thanks!
