Long Travel Struts?
I'm getting my car repaired and thinking about going to a longer travel double adjustable strut instead of spending money going through my old single adjustable strange struts. Is there any negative to a long travel strut?

Thanks in advance for the input.

"Conventional wisdom" says that you want as little suspension travel as possible in a fast, four link chassis car.

Could make an excessive wheelie situation worse?

More variables in vehicle reaction time?

Upgrade to a double adjustable front strut, with your history and performance level I'd say yes, but wouldn't try to reinvent your total setup.
