Didnt want it too low as I take the ute to work on construction sites :(.

Mine sat the same with the 17s on it, ie looked to high, even the tyre place said ahh you need to lower it more, im like matee wait till the rims go on. I was happy to prove him wrong Whats the distance from the centre of your wheel to the guard lip, be interesting to see if pedders is any lower or higher than king springs??Did you end up needing a camber kit ?

I did end up getting the camber kit just so I can play with my camber later on . I didnt measured yet I ll do it when they settle in a bit more mate then I ll let u know. And mark61, Pedders have 2 options to lower your ride, u can use about half an inch lowered springs or an inch. They have a heavy duty rear leaf springs which would be good for you beacuse u have a hard top and u carry stuff in the back. Hope u find this info usefull.
