    Default e30 M52b28 wheel tramping

    I have a e30 325 fitted with a 2.8, with BC coilovers, welded diff & poly bushes all round.

    Get bad wheel tramping (wheel hop) when wheel spinning in sraight line especially when wheel spinning from stand still & it's worse in the wet?

    Have tried different wheels tyres, settings on the rear shocks but still can't get rid of the tramping?

    Any ideas, cheers

    shocks are only 6 weeks old & it does stiffen the car when adjusted?

    Wonder if it could be spring rates.....

    Shorten the shocks as you might have no spring tension at all on the springs.

    Also, what spring rates have you got with the BCs?

    Cheers Dave

    I will try & shorten the shocks tomorrow or Wednesday as I just put them on as they come.

    Not sure what spring rate is as they were the ones that came with the BC kit......hopefully will get it sorted soon!!

    My e36 does this as well not every time but a lot, did it before I put in coilovers and still did afterwards..
