if you go much lower, after a while you will get sick of being f**k up the a** over every bump and have to find alternate routes so you wont encounter speed humps, you will also have trouble if you have a angled driveway.......i speak from experience
cheers

ppl with superlows arent that far off the bumpstops anyway.....
if ya want really low, take the springs out and sit her on the bumpstops!

i've got KYB shocks & lovell springs - from what i've been told, its just a wee bit lower than superlows - but not much - and that is low enough! any more is really just getting impractical!

I agree, i like the wheel arch to sit even with the top of the tread itself, 1cm lower max looks ok, anything else looks *stupid/odd* low

Yeah well on my EL I got about 1.5 cm gap between the tyre rubber and me wheel arch and it looks just perfect. I still have issues though with some speed humps and angled drive ways. Nothin more annoying than hearing that," CRRRRUNCH " as you drive over it. I always have to get out and check for underbody damage all the friggin time. Most of the time it is the chassis getting a pounding, sometimes to me Cat Converter gets a scrape. I had to replace it a few months ago cause it ended up getting smashed too much. Thats all the issues I have with only being "Low" and so I dare not even think of all the grief with being "Superlow!"
You can get an idea of just being "Low" with this link to pics of my EL http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/659626

I love the look of dumped Falcons/Fairlanes but another thing you have to consider is the amount of play in camber adjustment.. Or doesn't anyone care about tyre wear these days.
