    Default King Springs

    Hi Guys. Will be lowering my car this week hopefully on some King Springs and thought I would start a thread listing their available range.

    Below are part numbers for V8 SEDANS only. You should note that it's important not to confuse the part numbers with '+' with those that do not have '+'. For example KHFL-47HD+ suits a sedan whereas KHFL-47HD suits a 1 Tonner V6.

    STANDARD (same as stock):
    Standard Front: KHFS-48
    Standard Rear: KHRS-125

    FE2 HEIGHT (same as factory FE2; lowers 30-35mm from stock):
    Standard Front: KHFS-22
    Standard Rear: KHRL-125

    LOWS (lowers 30-35mm from stock):
    Low Front: KHFL-48+
    Low Rear: KHRL-45+

    LOW SPORTS (lowers 30-35mm from stock):
    Low Sports Front: KHFL-48HD+
    Low Sports Rear: KHRL-45HD+

    LOW CLUBSPORT/SS/R8 (lowers 30-35mm from stock):
    Low Sports Front: KHFL-47HHD+
    Low Sports Rear: KHRL-46HD+

    SUPERLOWS (lowers 50-60mm from stock):
    SuperLow Front: KHFL-47HD+
    SuperLow Rear: KHRL-46HD+

    ULTRALOWS(?):
    UltraLow Front: KHFL-47SSL+
    UltraLow Rear: KHRL-46SLHD+

    Now if people could help me fill in the blanks as to how low each type of spring drops it, it would be great. Please let me know of any errors above.

    If people with King Springs ONLY could post pictures and their suspension PART NUMBERS it would be great also.

    I think I am going to go with SuperLows but was wondering how much UltraLows drop it and if I will need new shocks and a camber kit? Also where can I buy them cheap (I remember reading that a sponsor on here sells them for about $200 a set or something?).

    Thanks.

    That sits nice on the rear. What size wheels have you got? And is the diameter of rim+tyre combination the same as stock or bigger?

    What part of your exhaust? Also did you need a camber kit or new shocks? And how is the ride.. real rough?

    the catback/headers hang pretty low so they scrape heaps. u should get new shortned shocks to match. And yes the ride is terrible
