Damn that sits nice. I have the same springs but my EL sits higher at the back like most others. (Can't post a pic at the mo, but you get the idea)

Thanks.........

Normal Speed Humps like the ones done side streets I don't have a problem with but shopping centre MONSTER speed humps the exhaust hits BUT I think it has dropped so I am fixing it on the weekend.

Have not driven into or down a gutter yet since it has been done but I would not recommend it. Although Parking into a gutter you have to be careful as some are higher then others. If you have Ultra Lows in the front you would hit gutters all the time while parking.

Driving normally with a full load of people is fine, if i had an XR Body Kit and/or venom bar on it I would see me loosing them by going up and down steep driveways.

If you go King Lows or King Super Lows then it will just cost you the springs and fitting, prob get away with under $350 total or cheaper call Justins Suspenision on 0414 265 791 to get a firm price..........
