Well I have recently installed low springs in my TH from Industrial Springs here in Adelaide and while the front looks better, the rear doesn't look like it has been touched at all but after a week I still get a kind of grinding sound from all four corners :rant: . i know it's the spring just bedding in but how long does it usually take? Some days it's worse than other. If I want the wheel arch sitting at tyre height what springs should i have used? Would it be easier to Ralliart Springs as they're made for a magna and are not a generic aftermarket item? Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
Mick.

Lows wouldnt do crap because of the stock ride height, It would have been worth getting Whiteline Superlows which are 50mm and the car is still at a practical Height todo the things you said you needed todo, Like Towing etc.
I didnt have no grinding noise each time my springs have been changed, and thats been quite a few times. Strange.
And as far as I knew arent the ralliart springs around the same height as ours anyway, They just look lower due to the wheel arches.

sure its not just the plastic inner guard scrubbing on the tyres?

Absolutley positive it's not tyre scrub. I didn't order the springs they were a gift for my 22nd bday. The rear is not even close to the wheel arch let alone under it. So if someone could finish this sentence...."If I want wheel arches at tyre height I need to buy......" I know it sounds childish but it's just easier. If anyone has decent pics of the King Spring super low/low combo that would be great.

Super low / low combo is ****, best thing todo is to save some money with the springs you have and head back down to Industrial springs and talk to them about compressing.
Did you pay for installation of the springs or install them yourself?

superlow/low combo and fit wheel arches.
btw, compressing is illegal

Hmm... uneven lowing whilst looks good for out cars, isn't the best thing to do.
Did they makes sure that the springs are for your car? I'd get the product numbers and ask this mob yourself to get prices and part number to check for yourself.
