    Been thinking the same thing, man.. Happy with the SSL's but want to go a bit lower. I hope they still make them but don't know. Best person to ask is http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/..._abba_fan.html he is based in Bunbury and supplies king springs.

    You should try lovells springs. I had sl fitted, but they had 2 lower sizes they tried. 1 down well over the wheel. 2 down it was close to the rim itself and thats on 16"rims.

    had a look on ebay and some sellers appear to still be selling SSSL's, so they might still make them or its old stock

    coilovers? in all seriousness (i cant afford bags and they dont suit what i want out of the car) im leaning towards coilovers.

    otherwise i dont know anyone with pedders springs, lovells only advertise sport lows and super lows on their website, kings have lows, super lows, super super lows, and apperently you can still get SSSL's (apperently they stand for show super super lows? not sure) for the rear, which is pretty much slammed.
