    I know this topic has been covered a million times but i just need an answer that i havnt seen specifically.
    I've just bought pedders superlow rears for $30 (bargain) and im wanting to put them in my stock VT (stock shocks, 15" rimss etc.) i was just wanting to know if this will be safe? i plan on putting new shocks in a few weeks time, just want to know if i can put the springs in now or not?
    Also will these shocks be suitable: MONROE GT LOWERED REAR SHOCKS VT/VX/VY COMMODORE SEDANS | eBay ?
    Cheers Guys!

    are you going to lower the front as well?? will look silly if you didn't, but its ok to lower your car with stock shocks, just dont leave it to long ride comfort wont be to good.

    oh on lows, stock shocks will be fine mate, and no you dont need to get the guards rolled.

    with 15's you could go to ultra lows without rolling the guards.

    Yeah lows onthe from and super lows in the rear.
    So I'd only have to get new shocks for the rear (if I want a more comfortable ride)
    Okay thanks heaps mate, appreciate it!
