Hi all
First post on this forum. Just bought a black Au2 Forte running on 16" mags. It looks too high off the ground for my tastes. Anyone recommend a supplier of lowering kits. How do they drive when lowered? Suspension too hard or what? What $$$ should I be spending? Cheers Kuband |

Try Pedders sports ryders. Or King Springs (lows or super lows are OK, anything lower is getting uncomfortable).
Have no idea which city/town you live in, so a bit hard to be more specific - but In Canberra, go to Revells in Fyshwick.

Superlows are good. Probably going to need to do the shocks as well.

If you go lower than low (ie, superlow), be aware of what impact it might have on your insurance.
