    hey mate, to be honest it looks like the front is lower then the back, looks like ssl front and sl rears. if your wanting a certain height keep in mind that what size rim you use will effect the ride height massivle. I got stockies on the back of mine and its completly dumped on its arse all i have is sl rears and sits lower then sssl. When i put 19's back on jacks me up like 4cm. Hope this helps

    Are ssl on the rear legal? With 17" rims will it ride so low that it would be illegal?

    your choice, i guess if your not happy with the superlows you could always cut them until you reach desired height :p

    Hey man, I think it kinda looks like king springs SL fronts and SL pedders rear. if you do that I'm pretty sure it should be alright on 17's. I was running SL front and rear on 20's and recently got defected, my exhaust does hang a bit low and I had a pretty heavy boot install in the rear (2 type R subs etc).
    Try SL kings all around, if you think it sits to low (or worried about legal height) you can buy spring spacer raisers to help adjust it.

    I had SSL's in the rear and SL's in the front over 19's a while ago and hated it, the back looks stupid and got defected pretty quick, defiantly wouldn't recommend it :p

    anyway, hope that helped!

    Get superlows. Looks nice and doesn't look too low to attract too much attention. And get bigger wheels to fill in the guards a bit.
