Also I got an all wheel alignment buy a top suspension shop here, they shimmed my front arms up nicely, and he said the rear was going to be fine.Go for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

droF Donating Members 32 Member For: 14y 3m 17d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 31/01/13 11:46 AM Share Posted 31/01/13 11:46 AM Just to mix it up a bit. Have you considered the kings HD springs. I tried the above springs myself but found them too soft(similar to standard) and the rears bottomed out a couple of times with shortened bump stops. So I changed the springs to: Custom Fronts SSSLHD minus 10mm -sits at 345mm, Rears SSLHD sits at 345mm. Even with the car fully loaded (full tank of fuel, boot completely full and 4 passengers - recent holiday) not once has the car bottomed out. If you want to compare the ride stiffness is the equivalent of Holdens FE1.5(sorry for mentioning that name). Not knowing under what conditions you will be using the car for it is worth considering. Personally since putting in the HD springs I wouldnt go back to the standard King Springs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little bit more firm, but I like the way it is at the moment... will find out this weekend when doing some towing if it's too low... I think it will be fine1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
