    Default VR FE2 Rear Coils

    hey everyone if anything like this has already been talked about then please link me.....

    i have just put 18s on my stock suspension vr (live axle)... the front looks alright but the cars arse is pointing to the sky specially with lower fuel in it.

    im not after the "wheel in gaurds" look but i want the car to sit level so just a bit lower therfore im after putting only the FE2 coils just for the rear.

    would this solve my issue? how many inches lower would it be with FE2 coils?

    also... how many inches is the first step into regular after market lowered coils?

    thanks.

    No they will not help my BT1 had FE2 and even when I had my 15`s it was pointing sky high and then when I put 18`s on it was pathetic so go lowered
    say the highest low =??

    I`d say SL (super lows) if you dont want to much dumpage though SL in the front and SSL (super super lows) in the rear worked out the balance better with the ass a little lower than the front.

    It'll look retarded if you go more than FE2 on the back with stock springs on the front, I prefer them the other way around rather than the sunken oldmans caravan tower look the young home boys go for .

    FE2 will lower it about an inch and stiffen it up quite a bit
