pedders or kings

[Lady Calais]

question; pedders or kings in a VX Calais (springs and struts) and price range if you know
cheers!

Kings make springs, not struts. I hear they make a good race spring but their street spring is not the best.
Are you going standard height? Is so then Lovels make a good spring for standard height, while the pedders shock and spring package would be quite good for lowered or standard, just pretty expensive i'd say.

kings are cheaper but not matched so the end height can differ some , pedders are a matched set and less likely to sag ? you get what you pay for in the end ??? take my advice stick with the pedders products 20+ years in the trade modified 100's of cars from std family hacks to 4WD's auscars HQ racers always a good result from pedders products and advice .

Pedders shocks are Monroe... you can do alot better than that. Their springs are good, but this talk of them less likely to sag is bullocks. The material used in the Kings is light years ahead of either Pedders or Lovells, and they back it up with a lifetime warranty against sag. There's a reason why Kings is the OEM spring supplier to Australia's two highest performance suspension manufacturers, DMS and MCA... their product is superior. Any problem people have with Kings is that they've chosen a cheap shitty shock that can't control them. Find me one person on the planet who has a complaint with a Kings and Bilstein combo. Yet there's no end of people who winge and bitch about Kings with stock, or cheap shocks...

KYB is a decent step up from Pedders, and we've never had any complaints about our KYB/Kings combo packages:
KYB / Kings Commodore Lowering Packages!
