Hey guys quick noob question. i'm looking at buying some springs and i've found some ultra lows for the front and super lows for the back which i'm pretty happy with since my front sits a bit high compared to the back.
Is it fine to do this? or is it unsafe in anyway
thanks in advance :D

theres no problem in doing this, but it will look funny.. the front will be slammed to the ground and the rears will sit high (1inch gap). ideally you'd want superlows at the front and ultra lows on the rear, because ek's generally sit higher in the rear. and with ultra low fronts, you'll be smashing your lip/headers/everything into the ground :D

I am pretty sure that everyone does this, but I am not 100% sure.

second this, get some ultra lows on rear and superlows on front the rear of EK is a 4wd stock while the front gives kisses to driveways :D
just my experience but yeah it will look sweet if your able to get a good combination as what eekay has mentioned

if u want you could maybe look into some Eibach Pro-Kit springs supposedly designed to go with stock shocks not sure on the drop it'll give but its a decent option if your only after springs but if you wanted shocks aswell then that would be a different story haha goodluck champ :wave:

yeah i've heard they are good quality but i'm wanting to spend as little as i can (without getting something dodgy as). pretty poor atm, thats why i'm leaning towards second hand. i guess if worse comes to worst i'll have to go brand new springs in a month or so
