I looked into these springs yesterday, and will be fitting a set of Lows on the weekend to my EL Monty Ghia. They are a comfort spring so not as hard or harsh as King springs. They are Australian made infact around the corner from King Springs in Queensland. I will keep you guys posted on the looks and how they feel. The set of 4 cost $230 which IMO pretty reasonable.
I purchased the springs from Online Performance Autos. They have an outlet at: 10/ 35-41 Westpool Drive Hallam VIC 3803 Phone: 0397031652 Web: http://www.onautos.com.au/ For more company info and products on Dobinson springs click below. http://www.dobinsonsprings.com/site/ |

I only got the Lows so should be a fraction lower than the stock XR height. Will post some picks just after instalation and say 2 weeks later after they have settled.

As i said i went to a stockist yesterday. The guy working there used to work at the same company im currently at, so i guess it was a good start. The owner knew his stuff too. There just happened to be a mate of his there with an EF falcon with the same springs that i purchased. I must admit it sat well but mine is the Ghia so a little heavier. Will keep you guys posted but one good thing they are all Aussie made and have been around since the 50's.

When he first had them in he thought they were too high but didnt realise that they have to settle over a couple of weeks. He liked the ride as in not too hard like other springs. He claimed that the smoothness was like stock but being lowered it handled better on turns. I will find out soon compared to king springs.
