just bought some rear shock absorbers for my CG.

they are a "bit" shorter than the shocks i removed from the bike. would that cause many issues?

im guessing as long as the wheel fits without rubbage i will be alright?

I'd not worry at such a small change. something to a fair few cms would make me question them but 1/4 inch... nothing
