Just after some forward rake and want minimal gap on front arch but don't want the rear to be too low, personal preference. I like the V8 Supercars look. Do you have any more photos of your SSL setup especially the front wheels? Does it go much lower when you sit into it as I am pretty heavy.

V wheels and spacers but you get the idea.

Just be aware that the Commodore has slightly different suspension than the SS. The rare Commodore with Magride has different rear struts and use a different spring than the SS. I would guess that if you want the rear a little higher than the front you should use the same spring (ie SSL, SSSL) front and rear. I had to use SL in the front and the next higher spring in the rear (can't remember the number off the top of my head) to get the rear to sit a little higher in my SS. When I used the King recommendation of SL front SSL rear, my car sat way lower in the rear. To be clear, King's recommendation is for the Commodore and not the SS and King will say these "don't fit" the SS because they haven't tested them and the suspension is slightly different.

Wow that is awesome, so this is still Kings SSL front and rear? Looks great just what I need!
No rubbing at all at this height?

Thanks mate yeah aware of that, I have spoken directly to Kings and they advised me to go same springs front and rear if i want the normal factory look and not a sagging rear end. They did say that the MRC is a whole other thing to deal with so I guess it maybe sits a bit different compared to their Commodore SS figures. I think SSL front and rear is perfect combo for ride height, road capability etc. I will be going new Monroe Short Shocks to adjust to the lower springs as well so should be sweeet.

Kings SSL front and rear. No rubbing up front. No rubbing in the rear without spacers. Had to shave to not rub with spacers.

Hey there, just saw a pic you posted in 2017 of your SS in eibachs. Looks great!! Do you mind telling me which tyre sizes you are running? Also do you remember which eibachs they were?

Thanks in advance sir
