They have just been released. I kinda doubt it. I can't wait to get my hands on a set.

Just purchased the new Shock Towers from 7075. I want to install Innovative BigBore Shocks aswell, will i need to order Fronts allround or rears? Cuz the new shock towers seem to go higher than stock ones. Maybe Ol'fart can answer this one. :) Thanks.

Yes, they are taller but they must be. as the shocks are turned out for a more vertical setup they get taller, and aftermarket shocks will most likly be bigger, and taller.

Do some thread searching here, there have been done discussions recently about using hpi and nutech shocks that should help you as well.

I have, but since these seem higher than stock, I'm not sure if I should buy fronts or rears. That's my concern. At 140$ a pop per pair, i don't wanna take a guess.
