    I'm curious to see how mine will sit. I went overboard with superlows and shocks and stuff, I've just got a feeling its going to be too low for the 19's

    are they KING SRING ultra lows DAZ?? are they lowest off the shelf springs?

    mine sits about 1-2cm lower than that on cut springs (thats how I bought it 2 weeks ago, i didnt do it) and I wanted to replace it with some proper springs of similar height. I only have 17's though so i wanna make sure the wheels will still fill the front guards with no gaps

    cheers

    just a note:- King Spring says that anything lower than standard Lows (ie super lows, ultra lows etc) are not recommended for road use, only for show cars.

    Well I checked mine, the right hand side has clearance galore, the left however doesn't seem as great. Going to have to get the panhard adjusted a little more central and try again.
