What the hell man... That advice is the opposite of what he actually needs.

Ultralows on the front are Legal! I have Lovells Ultralows at the front, King Spring Superlows at the rear.

Legally in SA atleast the eye heights are 330mm for the front, 305mm at the rear.

Just throw some superlows in the rear and you should be fine.

Lovell's don't make an ultra.

And for everyone that say 'get supers ultras are illegal...' - you do realise that each manufacturer simply use an arbitrary figure and there's no correlation between names and heights from manufacturer to manufacturer?

Depends on how "too low" your car is... Lovells, whiteline, etc, sit a little higher than kings... lows, supers, ultras, etc are usually generally about the same drop, but it does vary between brands... kings usually being the lowest.
