Thought ill ask here instead of making a new thread so could anyone recommend me which lowered springs and shocks i should get for my ve omega please ?

I want to the car to be level and for the gaurds just to sit on top of the tyres as currently im running 20" wheels.

I was thinking either SSL all round with KYB shockers or Pedders sport ryder springs and shocks.
Also i tend to two a trailer here and there and take a full car load of people every week so i dont want the car to scrub on the gaurds aswell ?

Below is a picture of my ve

2010 SV6 VE Commodore
Hey!

What springs: King Springs - Ultra low - SSSL All around,

What shocks: Standard

Ride height after: About a 1.5-2inch drop, Rear is tucking just abit.

Ride quality: Perfect, love it! It is abit bumpy because of my 20's but it's barely noticable, sharp speed bumps... Gotta love them right? I just go slow and on a slight angle, carparks are the worst, especially ones with steep ramps...

Were from: Bought the springs on eBay and fitted them in myself, went to bob jane for a free wheel balance.

How much: $231 all together.

And model: 2010 SV6 Sedan

I'll have an uploaded photo as soon as I get home, but If you want you can check out my page in the VE Showroom and it has a few photos of what my ride looks like.

2010 SV6 Voodoo Ute
Is there anyone out there with a stock height SV6 (series 1 if it makes a difference), I just want to know the standard height, either a centre cap to wheel arch or ground to wheel arch measurement?
My ute has been lowered on pedders springs but unsure how low that was. I now have 20s, and would like to go lower, but just want to see where the guard would sit with ultra lows and shocks. Also any utes with out there with ultra lows (super lows front maybe, to make it level) keen to know the measurements ( they quote a 70mm drop?)
