My car is a 15 PP, and is currently lowered on an Eibach Pro Kit with factory rear shocks, with Eibach bump stops.
I am going to be installing the Viking shocks.

The shaft diameter of the new Vikings is larger than factory, and therefore the Eibach bump stops won't go on them.
What is the common cure for this?
I see people talking about the Steeda adjustable bump stops, and how they "improved the ride" and other things, which leaves me a little perplexed..
Shouldn't the bump stops only come into play when you are literally bottoming out your suspension?
Aren't they only in place to act as a fail safe? I would like to be educated on this subject, and find a good path forward for installing these shocks. Thanks
