New Shoes TE37, in need of a drop?
Hey guys, first time ive ever bought wheels for a car ive owned

Used king low springs on the Koni high perch ,15x7 et43 TE37's, 205/50 tyres (ie taller) and no issues. For the "stance" crowd its prob nowhere near low enough

Lowering Springs
Hey,
I was after something to make my car sit lower and sit nice on my wheels yet still be able to get over bumps and stuff.
I got a set of king springs in the back of my car and cobra springs in the fron of my car. Mag and turbo did it for me in May this year. I got receipts.
The king springs in the back make my back sit a little lower and then the front sits about 5mm higher...its not noticeable.
My front shocks were good but i had to get brand new back shocks which were an extra 200.
Id be happy to give you my shocks and springs together if you make me a deal.
its still on my car so if your interested in them you can come and see how they sit on the car. Ive got pictures i can send you. just text me on 02102433339
Thanks

My car wouldn't last on the street. We've had a guy crash at our driveway, bounce off the tree and go across the road into the bank before going over and taking out the neighbours tree. Oh and the bastards who keep going along Scenic Drive to smash all the letterboxes and I stopped parking on the street after the car got broken into multiple times. Tempted to park a car there with explosives in it though but I think the consequences don't quite justify it Yeah... The road is a no go

My facourite one was the Porsche down a bank in a position I thought was impossible to reach. The guy would've be very embarrassed with everyone driving by. Then you get the serious ones which they don't walk away from ... Not good
To bring it back on topic... Those wheels eh? When I move I might have to lower mine a touch more.
