Sorry...forgot to put in measurnments. Super-lows bring the ride down 2" all round and i think the lows bring it down 1 1/2"

But ive had my compressed so the front 2 3/4 and rear 3 1/4

Use "Lovell Super Lows" GBM has em and there are sick as S**t!!! there wild.. the drop is 65mm *im think* about 2.5" or so..

nice.. not expensive either; ride quality is phat! neat.

BOOYA Factor: 9.5/10

Hey mate,

I am putting 18's on my TH and the springs i am dropping it with is King springs - low at rear and superlow at front!! my car sits nose up 4 some reason and I really dont wanna be bottoming out - this will put my 18's with about 1-2cm's between the rubber adn the gaurd - perfect heigt in my opinion!!

Thanks for the replys me think that kings r the "g o" no comments about the pedders ??? must be top notch stuff
Are they hard to put in and do i need to change the actual shock if i choose the super lows ?

ADVAN: i put Kings on my TS. I went 2 1/4 on the front 2½ on the rear. Handle great with the 17in. but the prob is over big bumps the shocks bottom out. You'll need new shocks so that this doesn't happen, if you've got the money, go Koni or Bilstein shocks for awsome handling. Spending more money u can get caster and camber kits, strut braces and sway bars, but just wack the springs on to start and go from there

Yer you could do that, but id prefer to save up, and do it in one hit.. this has a few advantages..

1. the more you buy, the cheaper things get
2. you will only have to pull your car apart once.
3. as above
4. as the one above the 'as above'

:D
