15 front struts on the BOSS?

I don't think so but you could call CorteX and ask them. They have a JRi kit for the S550. How do you think they are going to help our cars anyway?

The struts won't help even if they do fit. The main improvements in the front suspension won't cross-bolt without major modification. The double ball joint spindle and the mounts for both arms and sway bar location look really different. The top mount on the new struts are also 3 bolt IIRC.

I was just thinking that we could fit a wider tire up front with them without using spacers. It also might have widened the track a bit to, if you had to do other mods to make it fit.
Just a thought. lol

The shocks aren't going to allow or hinder you from running a wider front tire, the offset of the wheel and the fender are going to hinder you mostly.
