Now from my working with the stock rims and tyres to what you have now the car should actually be about .4 of an inch lower than it was before.

And as mentioned already just get some king springs and chuck them into your standard shocks, not super lows just the first step which should drop it about an inch or 25mm. They'll be fine on the stock shocks and then when your stock shocks wear out replace them with better ones if you still feel the need to.

Is it a ute or sedan, and pics with you as mentioned. :innocent:

Ive got a ute which I am yet to lower and have looked at the options and the lowering blocks is probably the worst option. Better off modding the standard leafs or getting a lowered leaf kit. With the blocks you get your shock lower mount extremely close to the inner of the rim and although it stays at a set distance it just hairy and a block is actually pushing the leafs further from what they are ment to sit at normally.
