raising ride height

[MisterGT2]

I'd love to have a "cross country" stinger. Has anyone ever heard or seen a raised stinger? I'm only thinking about a couple inches, maybe 3 at most. I'm planning to get slightly taller tires next time around, but that wont add more than an inch and there are potential issues with rubbing I'd like to avoid. I really like my car and I'd rather not have to sell it and buy something else.

I've found a company based in Germany that will fabricate aluminum spacers, with the total cost 1-2k depending on the height
Suspension lift kit / body lift kit for KIA Stinger - SPACCER.
Not sure I want to spend that much without knowing they will work for certain. Has anyone heard of a company in the US that does this?

Those look like an expensive version of

The difference is that the spacers are not inserted into the coils like coil inserts. They appear to go in between the coils and the shock...

You will be the first to "raise" a Stinger.

It's a legit question, I suppose. Rally racing is pretty popular in parts of the world. Even here in the US, lots of SCCA regions offer Rallycross, which is the dirt version of AutoCross. Although... as rare as Stingers are in AutoX circuits, I would imagine it might be even rarer in RallyX. While it's not uncommon to see $150k+ supercars running tarmac at AutoX and Track Days, most folks who are into rallying typically buy an old POS, gut out the interior, retune the suspension for dirt (or not), and slap on AT tires. I cannot imagine doing it with an expensive 4000 lbs roller.
