Hey
My mate recently put 'sports lows' on his EF Falcon but i believe super lows would be better! He says not to get super lows as the ride will be rough, and the a** of the car we hit everything when i got passengers! What you dude's reckon? |

Lower the car goes less spring there is so, my guess would be yes, my car has lows in it and its ruff compared with stock ride height, could also be shocks.

Heck I've currently got ultralows in the back of mine and I don't have hardly any issues, the ride is crap but I think that's my rooted shocks. New whiteline stuff will go in and I actually think my car will sit higher

if ur lowing your car, you have to expect it to be a rough ride. you wont notice much difference between normal lows and super lows apart from the obvious height difference. i got heavy duty lows in mine an the ride is rough but i also have 17s which make the ride a little rougher.

i had superlows, but have since gone up to lows, coz the front skirt hit everything, and the centre muffler dragged its a** over speedhumps and ramps.
i tend to agree with your mate, the ride is more comfortable on the lows. i dont grit my teeth everytime i hit a pothole. however handling isnt nearly as good. alot more body roll now, and the car generally doesnt feel as confident through the corners. still way better than stock though!

Weird how Mash's now has worse handling, from reading whitelines stuff they say that the flatout springs are worse handling then there control springs. Low=Lows and Flatout+SuperLow. Damn i'm confused.

Ben hmm makes sense to me, as i raising the height of the car, and therefore the centre of gravity. so the car should feel more "nervous" through corners as its more top heavy, and rolls around. really though, there isnt much in it. my handling is still good, just not as good as it was before. but the trade off in handling was worth the gain in ride comfort imo
