the back of that monaro looks lower than the front but if you want the back to be a little bit higher than maybe go sl front and low at the back but my personal choice would be all sl.

also have a look at the my ride section at a few vt/x's that have been lowered and see what ya think

also another thing you can do is get a tape measure and see how low you want to go.

lows will drop about 35mm
super lows will drop about 50mm

oh ok, so you just put the old springs back in... to get it back to standard height... how low did you go? and what springs did you use?

I have a mate that works in the springs business and he made them custom height for me from scratch.

front was into the guard

So everyone thinks i should go super lows with king springs.... do i need new shocks too?

Holla - Can you please post a photo of your ride on the 19s cause i was thinkin about getting 19s!

I was doing some measurements around my vx today, seeing how low 50mm will drop things like the exhaust cause some of the roads around my area are shocking...
