Kings make 2 lowering springs, what they call "Low" and "Super Low". Personally I wouldn't recommend the "Super Lows", they are too low and too high in the springs rates. "Lows" are OK, very similar to the Whiteline springs I used in the Group Buy Kits (350 mm front and 340 mm rear, centre of wheel to guard).

If you are thinking of using them with the standard shocks, I strongly suggest you have a read of this thread first.

I used the following King Spring combination with the Bilstens:

KDFL-101 - 175lb/" / 3.1kg/mm

KDRL-61SP - 185lb/" / 3.2kg/mm

My car handles fantastic. And I hadn't installed the swaybars at this stage.

ok well i got std springs in it now...but the nob that i bought it off cut the springs....so the car sits as follows

front from centre of cap to guard = 360mm

rear from centre of cap to guard = 320 mm

so as u can imagine the car sits a lil front high and rear heavy.

Im happy with the ride...handles well...gets a lil bouncy sum times...but eh

so can sum1 help me here....im just after springs for now...coz i cant afford a full suspension setup till prob another 6 months.

So after reading one of the replies....it looks like Kings spring lows just wont be low enough....

my main aim is to drop the front another 20mm and keep the rear as is....

so would king spring Superlows do it? or do SL's in the back and L's in the front...

any suggestions?

I put slightly trimmed super low king springs on my 33's standard shocks, ended up popping all the seals and leaking fluid. Shocks were sent to the tip and replaced with hks hypermax II coilovers :-)
