Lovells superlows sit really nice

have a look at this levin

King springs do lows. drops 2.5-3"

without upgraded shocks, with more than 35mm, say goodbye to any sort of decent ride and your shocks in no time.

if you are looking for the look then fine

if you are even inclined to take a corner quickly, get a rear sway instead for $200, money better spent

Saw a ZR Levin today riding on 17's with kings and it sat with about 3-4 fingers space from tyre to guard. Looked nice.

KYB have part no's for Excel G's for the 152's but they won't be available till march/april.

[YBHVE4]

orders a set of the lovell springs in. Hopefully ill fit them up this weekend.

how many mm drop was that in the lovells site?

would king lows 30mm or even pedders springs be good? i was thinking of getting them soon..

no sure. the site says 340mm fronts and 350mm rears.

dont quote me on it but apprently the Lovell is the lowest dropped compared to Kings and Pedders.

I should have mine installed this Saturday.

Fingers crossed

[shin0bi]

Check your insurance too. NRMA had told me that they would only cover up to 30mm drop in height and I have heard a few others are similar

[KevO]

it's sitting low, how much did the dual exhaust set you back ?
