I searched with the key word "coilover" in this forum but couldn't find anything that answered my question. Thusly...

Are rear coilovers allowed in the case of an E36 325?

GCR 17.1.4.D.5.b.3. (whew!) says that the springs "shall be installed in the original location using the original system of attachment."

At the end of that paragraph, it also says "Coil over threaded body shock/struts are permitted."

It seems that the two statements contradict each other when it comes to the rear suspension of the E36 325, or am I not reading the rules right?
