Springs

[nedgeworth]

Hey guy,

I'm currently running on superlow king springs. While I love the look I'm having a hard time with putting my stereo gear in the gear and getting way to much saging due to the weight.

I was thinking of changing springs to a set of Tein S.Tech. They say on there site approximate height drop. And I'm not sure if this is in any way different to the drop on superlow kings. I suspect it's about the same. Tein states approx. (Front: 1.81" Rear: 1.73")

Seeing as I love the look of my car low I'm not sure if i'd be happy going to the H.Tech range. Tein states approx. (Front: 1.22" Rear: 1.14")

If anyone can help me out with the approximate drop currently with superlows that would be great :) This is on an EH9 sedan.

The other thought is replace my shocks are they are only stock at current?

Thanks guys!

I always understood superlows was a 2 inch drop and lows 1 inch.

i got superlows put on my EK two weeks back, and they are far from 'super low'. I no they need to settle and what not but 2 weeks on its really not looking promising of getting any lower. I got 2 12inch subs and amp in the back too and its not, if any of that helps lol.:thumbsup:

Yeah mine is pretty damn low! Ended up lower than I expected. Use too it now but and it looks pimp! So thinkin I might try out new shocks but need an experts opinon on weather or not that is going to make any difference to my sagging problem.

Seeing as all my stezza gear probably weights 40-50kgs.

before this gets too far down the page i want an answer :P

I'll put my question simply. Will changing shocks change the sagging in my car? And no i'm not fat! :P

no.
changing shocks will change the rate of which your car has a positive rebound.
