Hey guys I own a Black VL thats has been lowered on king springs lows, I have VY GTS 18's and want to go lower, would it be feasable to go to King Springs Super lows without changing the shocks or should I change the shocks aswell?
By the way I will be putting on a Group A kit and was wondering what kinda clearance I would get with the super lows? Cheers guys any help would be nice

i couldnt handle the roads round here with super lows so i went for the sport lows. i think it is 3 inches lower with the superlows sport lows worked out to be about an inch and a half lower no kit tho so there was plenty of height either way

Im running king sping lows all round and have standard shocks and it seems to be ok I suppose you need lowered shocks if you go any lower otherwise the shocks just wont work

20-08-05, 17:14 GMT+10#14 fe2 is about the same as kingspring lows... if u go superlows u need a shock that will trap the spring properly, i used pedders comfort ryder and they r beautiful (set me back $150) good all round... make the back end feel beautiful!! makes it stick to the ground heaps better than the old shocks did!!
