ProjectIS Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 hahhaha the wonders of photoshop! Gotta love Photoshop!! Anyway, stop photoshop'n and make the drop reality brother!!! You any closer to making a decision with the springs?? Are you going to go with side skirts aswell or are U hoping to achieve the look entirely through the drop?

Niick Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 haha no cheating, just the drop! As i mentioned in the other thread im looking at getting custom made king springs so i can achieve the drop i want. Only thing im worried about is the standard shocks stuffing up prematurely which is why i really should get coilovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldc Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Im too looking for custom Kings drop. I want 1.5 rear and 1 front. I don't think it does too much harm to the shocks if you only lower it 1". that said it depends on your driving and where u drive your car.

Niick Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 My bad. Not much room to lower if that's stock height. Theres plenty of room to lower! I know a few people with 19's and 20's on smaller cars and you cant see the top of the tire. They still get away without rubbing all over the place. I also have a few mates that got superlow king springs for a few cars. Late model commodores, 328i beema and xr6t to name a few.. and they weren't impressed by the difference. As ultra low's or super super's aren't available ready to go for the is250's custom springs are the only option when going beyond 1.5" With that said, you can still get customs with only a 1" drop but a softer spring if you wanted.

kinjiru Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 My bad. Not much room to lower if that's stock height. I have used 19' with king springs. I have also lowered the car as well. Late post but very nice. Thumbs up from me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niick Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 OMG! Im in love. That has to be bagged. No way you can drive it around at that height! Im after a drop of 2 - 3 inches. No more than that because im not the only driver of the car and i don't wanna see missing bumpers. The other family members have already guttered the rims that I bought!

Thats what I thought!!! I don't know what Victorian roads are like, but Im sure all the Sydney boys would agree that our roads are crap and you would lose the front bumper with in 5 minutes of taking it out of ya drive!! You don't really see the "VIP" style much in Aus!! Yeah you get the "dodgie" ones going around, but not really any with class!! Love to see an IS done!! Any volunteers??? Ilv???

Hi Hanex, Great choice!!! They are "MY" wheels......or should I say the wheels that will be on my ride soon!! You looking @ about $900 each rim......If you find a better price then that, pls let me know. Sorry, that price is for 19's. IMO, I would stay with 19'!!

hanex Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I got a quote start around 4k for 4 wheels and custom finish extra 300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProjectIS Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 Is that from the Work distributor in New Zealand?? He quoted me $4k landed. But that was for 19's. Since then, I had a quote from one of our fellow members for $3600. What type of finish were you getting?? As far as I knew, they only came in the 2 finish's!

kinjiru Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 The Work wheels are probably my favourite out of the many thousands I have seen, however they are SOOOOOO expensive. :( I like your taste! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
