Hey guys,
Im wanting to lower my car a fair amount on the 17s that i've just purchased.
Now i can get cost price springs from king spring but i was wondering if anyone has tried the super extra low compared to the super low springs. If any one has can they please post some pics or even post some pics of integras with super lows in them so i can check out the ride height.
Also if people have tried the super extra low or Ultra lows ( same thing) Was any modification in the shox needed, eg. shorter shox.
Cheers

i wouldnt go super extra low with 17"
i use to have extra lows on my 17" before and it scraped like crazy.
also, king springs are not all that good. hope it helps

if the springs go lower that 2" *which i assume ultra lows do* then u will need a new shock setup as it will put 'ultra' stress on the shocks. and they will blow pretty quickly as they are constantly under the stress of the car
also, king springs are not all that good. hope it helps

if u go with super ultra lows, ur looking at getting new shocks soon. my shocks crapped themselves after about 6months. my car was about 4"-4.5" drop all round on my accord.
althought the shocks were gone, the ride was still smooth. i only knew the shocks were gone when igot them tested.

NO shocks are made to work with super dooper mega extra low springs ;)
a 4.5 inch drop will root ANY shock out there.

"Drop" is an irrelevent factor when it comes to shock damage; If you move the shock body down the same ammount (or a tad less) or move the shock mount upwards you will still have similar shock travel with high drop.
It's all about travel.

howcome everyone says kings are shit?
with stock shocks they are but when matched to a good set of shocks they're pretty good
i think all springs are shit with stock shocks actually makes ur car look shit bouncing everywhere

the thing with king springs is that they tend to sag over time.
the sag amount will depend on what u drive.. sub etc..
OHH NO
