Description
The GKTECH offset strut mounts allow for additional adjustment for those with longer LCA’s than standard or if you want to adjust castor. These CNC machined aluminium offset strut tops are our budget version.
The reason we call this our “budget” version is that this version does require cutting of the strut top if you want to use the additional range available by using the strut top. Unlike our premium version which does NOT require you to cut your strut tops.

FAQ’S
What’s the purpose of having an offset strut?
When you run longer LCA’s (lower control arms) than your standard items there is an increase in negative camber. Moving the strut top out helps to decrease camber and in doing so with the wheel sitting further out of the wheel arch, this will allow for more steering lock. The other benefit in these strut tops is that they also have castor adjustment.
What’s the benefit of adjusting castor from the top of the strut?
Adjusting castor from the top of the strut means less steering bind of the tie rod end. Steering bind brings significant load to your steering rack, tie rod ends and your knuckle so adusting from the top of the strut is beneficial.
Do these jack the car up?
Yes, they raise the height of the 0.47” over your standard strut tops. Simply reduce the height of your coilover and it will counteract the height difference.
Do you make these for other cars?
No, we only sell the products listed on our website. If it’s not listed on here, then we don’t sell it. Sorry.
Are these hard to install?
No, not particuarly. Pop your bonnet, unbolt your current strut tops from your coilover, jack your car up so the strut falls down and slip the new plates in their place. Once you’ve got an idea of how far out your strut needs to go, start cutting.
Will I have to get a wheel alignment after installing these?
Yes, after installing these offset strut mounts your camber (and castor if you adust it) will have altered so it is best to get a front wheel alignment.
