I assume when you refer to SSL you actually mean UltraLow? As kings only have SL and UL.

To my knowledge kings also have springs which aren't listed, I have KHRL-SSSL's :D in the rear of mine which are incredibly low but aren't listed in the superlow/ultralow catalogue, most people I know didn't even know they existed until they seen mine.

go for a standard heavy duty low and it will lower your car by 30mm, superlows lower by around 35-40mm (realistically) and ultra lows are around the 50-60mm mark.

If you want to lower your car just that little bit (FE2 equivelant) then go a standard heavy duty low for your model car.

Send us a pm if you want a discount on new springs/shocks

I'll have to get a descent pic of the rear of it, but to give you an idea it tucks a 20" inch rim with no one in the back and pretty much no fuel, with a full tank of fuel and two kids in the back well you get the idea lol

I assume when you refer to SSL you actually mean UltraLow? As kings only have SL and UL. I would go SL all around, UL will be too low. Have a look here: http://forums.justcommodores.com.au/vy-holden-commodore-2002-2004/82687-king-springs.html refers to V8's but i figure the amount it lowers your car should be the same.
This is the confusing part. So many names for springs:D.
Some call them SSL and others Ultra low. But some use SL as ultra low and some Ultra as SSL. And them some have SSL and Ultra low, And call the SSL lowest:bang:.
For me I'm lucky 99% of the time i have noone in the back. And i don't want to make the same mistake i did with the VP, Went SL all round and after sometime realized it could have been 10mm lower at the rear:cry:.

Post 2 in your link, That is the height i'd love to have. If i could pick the height, SL all round with a few more mm at the rear lower.

in my opinion lows are a waist of money and time, ultra lows are a bit of an over kill and cop bait. I have super lows and love the look feel and ride. rarely scraps going through spoon drains and never on speed humps. To get your value for money go for super lows all round. hope this helps.

nah sits like 1 1/2 - 2 inches higher noones in the car. but my mates are big boys..

thats why i was rim tucking 18's..

EDIT: but yes with mates in the car and fuel and sqatting it goes even lower than the lip of the rim. i was at firlile shoppin centre with rck on sat night and thought i was completely out of the dip, gave it a bit too much throttle, the ass sat down and scraped the tow bar for a few metres, one of the boys in a car 20+ metres ahead on the road could hear it with his windows up and prob had music playing too. - better than it being something else scraping tho
