Hey,

I've decided on wheels, I've decided on tyres, insurance is sweet, I just need to decide on what springs to put in.

The place I'm getting my wheels from does pedders springs, however I haven't seen many pics of magnas with pedders springs in all the 'lowering threads'.

I want it low (kings super low type low), but I don't want the ass too look like it's dragging on the ground. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm in Adelaide, so recommend a good suspension place too if ya can :)

PS. At the moment im thinking kings super low front, kings low at rear, stock shocks for the time being...but I can be swayed!!

Go with the kings super lows (fronts) and lows (rears).. 90% of the cars here that have been lowered have these in them..

Low = 40mm drop
Superlow = 60mm drop

Low and Superlow combo will even ur magna out (front huge wheelarch and it sits up higher then the back) but i still feel as if if u just got lows all around it hardly makes the magna look "lowered" just more like a normal car instead of 4WD height

I have lovell super lows on the front i think (not totally sure didn't put them in myself) and its too low for my liking. Scrapes going in and out of my drive way and bottoms out sometimes going over speed bumps and dips. And if i accidently go to far when parking where theres a gutter or one of those concrete stoppers *SCRRRAAAAPEEEE* I think my bump stops on the front are totally gone now and the tow hooks are so dented and mangled its not funny.

Its giving me the ****s so much that i think im gona get new "normal" lowered springs and shocks on the front. I went normal lowered springs all round on on my old galant and never had a problem with scraping or bottoming out and you could still tell it was lower than standard.
