i wouldn't go for kings, if you dont have them already, as intime will sag and if not scrubbing at the start will scrub eventually:wave:

Kings are the worst springs around. Get some coilovers.

my prelude is lowered on king lows...
ride has been good for a month. it's just slightly bumpier than stock. i've got a 2 finger gap all around with stock 16" rims.
should i expect it to be shocking in another 6 months or so?

;)
so when you say sag are you saying it will keep on sagging over the years til your car is 1cm off the ground? of course no one will let it get that bad...but you know what i mean.
you make it sound so bad...while other people say it's good value and stuff like that lol

so basically kings lows drop around 3.5cm...the really low ones drop like 5-6cm i think

grab monroe shocks for lowered springs.
they come with warranty and is decent enough.
cheap too.

ive got kings with 205/40R17's, dont scrub at all, if you have a bigger tyre ie: 215/45
you will scrub.... i tried putting them on the rear and it scrubbed like hell with no-one in the back!!.... as long as you have 205/40's you should be fine, hope this helps........

Monroes are crap. I've been thru TWO SETS and both times they leaked WITHIN warranty. Never again.

my car is on air suspension and basically sits on the ground on 18's. As long as you roll the rear guards you will be fine. If you want to slam the crap out of it then you will have to cut out the front plastic guards and get a hammer and bend the the metal seem in which is at the top of the guard where the quarter panel and chassis meet. There is also a bolt that is holding a part of the abs system on in the drivers side guard that you will need to take out and hammer in flat as this will rub on your tyre.

thx for ur input guys..:D
If you done mind when you say kings can you plz mention if they are medium or extra low :) cos there is abit of a difference.

tm143 - im gussing 18inch wont work 2 well on ultra low kings. maybe mediums...

I had only 16inch wheels with my kings extra lows and i got some scapage on dippy corners. For some reason i hope i can fit 17's with low profile typres...


Rolling ur guards.... beating them wider so ur wheels can turn outwards more ? If you get them rolled do you need 2 respray ur guards ? like would it wreck the paint beating them out ? body work = expensive...


thanks again

i have King Superlows on 17s and ive never scrubbed. nor have they sagged in over a year. For a quick, cheap lowering without going all hardass with coilovers, kings are fine.

u said they scrub when u turn..

What about 'bottoming out' the top of the wheel hitting the top of ur gaurds, like during a dippy corner...
