    Quick question..

    Got kings ultra lows all round in my VX, it's an 02 equipe if that makes a difference..


    Anyways, wondering what other springs can I put in it to make it lower ? Or can't I go any lower than ultras..


    Some people say Ultras are equivalent to Double SL's, some say Ultras are the lowest you can go, so dunno what to beleive.

    Thanks

    Ultra lows are sssl. Drops your car about 70mm from stock. Ssl does 50mm. I've heard of people using daewoo springs in the rear to make it lower. But going lower than ultra's with coils is dodgy as and will ride like shiiiiiiit! I'd be looking into airbags dude.

    Thanks mate for clearing that up. Don't get me wrong it sits really nice with the Ultras/SSSL's in it, but it's on 19's so isn't as low as it could be if that makes sense. But don't want to put stockies on :p

    Yeah might have to look into Airbags just such a waste of money could do better things with $1500-$2000 lol

    What's the legal limit over there? It's 50mm here.
    I ran super low kings in my 02 VX. I did run ultra lows but found them unpractical.

    I was thinking it would look fine with ultras lol. Should be tuckin a fair bit if rim hey? Mines on ssl's with 20's and aaaalmost tucks.




    Yeah it's 100mm here. Which pretty much means as soon as your car looks cool it's illegal.
