    I have king superlows in my vs super 6 calais and they are perfectly fine. Although I do have Boge short shocks in with them on all corners. Also with a full tank it will sit a bit lower than usual superlows due to the bigger tank the super6's have. Jacking it up becomes interesting but not impossible.

    I highly doubt they will ever fall out when driving let alone just sitting there once jacked up. Although cable ties can fix everything.

    LOL my car has to go thro compliance so the cable ties wont do the job lol
    in NZ the law states that the springs must be captive ie they don't fall out when u jack the car up if u can shake them out it must require a decent shake not press out using 1 pinky finger

    That's why you get shortened shocks.
