I want my commy this low, she's about 6 cm's lower than stock in this photo (or as close to 6cm as i could get, i used a tape measure as a scale). What kind of king springs should i use? SL, SSL, SSSL?
i want it to be 10cm off the ground as thats the legal limit

EDIT: also those are just basic 16" rims

As the car is in this pic, would it not already be at the stage where going up a driveway or speed bump with your wheels slightly turned make the wheels hit the wheel arches?? That's how it looks >< Maybe just try getting a low kit now.
