      55mm is the outside measure...

      measure the thread of the nut. if it is 55 it is for the s2, if it is 50 it is for the 80...

          55mm is the strut housing, he is talking about the inserts

            Yes I am talking about the inserts, bought a pair of cheap struts of a V6 coupe but they too narrow, does the outer strut always measure 55mm only it's difficult trying to get a fix on the thread or inside without stripping things down?
