About to buy a stock vt aclaim wagon. Looking at lowering it on some vy monaro 18's. Just after a combination of springs to put in to dump it, not too extreme, but I want it pretty damn low. I was thinking King Spring Ultra Low's. Wondering if anyone has any photos of lowered wagons, and what combo they have.

Cheers
Timbo

Most people put superlows in the front and ultras in the back, remember lowering isnt just about springs :)

thanks for the advice. Yeah, i will be puting in shorter shocks, and a 4 point camber kit also. I was thinking of puting Ultra Low Wagon springs in the front (I Think KHRL-47SSL) and Ultra Low Sedan Springs in the rear(I think KHRL -46SSSL). Will this be drivable with 18's on, or will I need to roll the guards? etc
Thanks
Timbo

I think you should be ok, I think you only really need to roll your guards when your on 20's.. though I am not 100%

Ive just had my rear springs changed from heavy duty springs to standard sedan springs and it has lowered the rear of my car by another 3 or so cm and the ride is sooooo much better.
